OK, so I had to actually jump on PS4 and PS5 to force the download manually. the app wouldn't let me download it for some reason.

Just tried the game. Got my ass handed to me. I feel like that parry window is too tight. But I'll reserve judgement until I've had a bit more time with the game.

Only thing I wish is that I could customize my style.

I miss my Muay Thai parries and knee strikes from Absolver

Honestly, if they gave me the ability to import just the look of my character from Absolver, this would be my GOTY.

@The Mad Titan has a fair point tho…I might be looking at it as “easier” bcuz I’m enjoying it a lot…as much as I liked returnal, I’m digging this game a lot more…this is one of those “sleepless nights” games for me lol…only reason I stopped playing around 2:30 this morning when I finally took a break is bcuz I was starting to play sloppy and making silly mistakes which meant it was time to give it a rest and come back with a fresh start

I think with returnal you could just get the right gear after enough runs and just brute force a lot of encounters

in Sifu, none of the permanent unlocks are anywhere close to that significant.

parrying you'll learn naturally. its a bytch at first because the enemies don't have wind ups like that at all

the dodges are what you need to be trying to pick up early.

Still getting smacked. Not sure how the game wants me to defend. I’m get it eventually

Same here. I'm not 100% sure what the game wants from me when it comes to defense. It's not frustrating though because I completely expected the game to be something you had to learn and study in order to play it properly. I still think that parry window is too tight.

as @42 Monks stated dodging (R2) is far more effective than parrying especially for “crowd control”

I might have to go hit the training dummy a few rounds cause i just got mopped 3x’s back to back at the club. Even the guy at the door gave me work

So who has made it to the museum so far? And at what age?

when you getting mobbed, you can bet that parrying everything will mean that one of those punches gets through - and damage can pile up QUICK

ain't no shame in getting your jackie chan on and taking a lap around the room throwing everything you can get your hands on to get yourself some space either

 

[WhatsGoodTy]

Yeah, I’m about to start finding ways to abuse this A.i

Got there at 55

realized that 55 ain't good enough for Museum on the first go if you're trying to unlock all the shortcuts

thats when i went back and started trying to get through the club at 30
