Honestly one of my best gaming experiences ever. I enjoy playing it docked to my TV and found the 40/40 setting to be perfect for both docked and handheld.
Heading into light spoiler territory so please read on only if you've finished the game (or don't care lol). As many say, the Genichiro fight atop Ashina Castle was where I got hooked, but the combat clicked for me a bit earlier with Lady Butterfly. I made steady progress until the final boss, which took me 16 hours! Not once did I feel frustrated though. Ran out of spirit emblems after a dozen or so attempts and tried the rest of the attempts by just deflecting, damaging and countering. It was so much fun learning the movesets of Isshin phase 2 and phase 3. And beating him was genuinely the greatest feeling of accomplishment I've had in gaming.
Anyone else finish Sekiro entirely or almost entirely on the Deck? How was your experience?
