Sekiro: Shadows Die Twice was a gaming experience like no other. This being my first FromSoft game, I was positively blown away from minute one. The opening cutscene sets the atmosphere and then the game took me for a joyride (I say that ironically) that I'll remember forever.

For me, the greatest combat mechanics ever put into a game. The game challenges you every step of the way and forces you to get good, rewarding you handsomely for finally accomplishing the task you failed at on the first 20 tries. Every major boss and even some mini-bosses were fresh roadblocking challenges that you have no choice but to overcome. The satisfaction you get after finally beating them is a feeling no other game can give you.

Although not the best aspect of the game, the story is nothing to scoff at either.

Impeccable game design, flawless combat system and spotless graphics, I have a total of zero complaints with this game. Hats off and a thank you to the team at FromSoftware for creating my new favourite game.
