That sword saint fight is one of the most aggravating and incredible moments I’ve seen while watching Phil. I too think it’s very clear he read a guide, as he is using strats and adapting his timing in a way that isn’t remotely realistic to how you would approach the boss when playing blind.Honestly, I have little hope that any mahdern game is too hard for Phil. Most games nowadays offer some sort of way for you to make it way easier, and those ways, which are usually hidden, are out in the open for people like Phil, who both read guides and have other folks telling them in chat that they should do this and that.
Just remember that Phil beat Sword Saint Isshin in Sekiro, a very hard boss, quite easily by spamming the Lazulite Axe (and he most likely had read guides about the boss and knew its moveset beforehand). And even if that had not worked, a paypig would have probably told Phil about the Dragon Mask and Phil would have grinded some attack power to make the game easier.
Here's hoping that I'm wrong and that the Pig ragequits Sifu, but I doubt it.
Looks pretty fun, though.
As a personal aside, Sekiro was my intro to fromsoft games as a player, and I also wasn’t really even playing games at the time I picked it up. Needless to say, I had to stop playing because it whipped my ass so hard (couldn’t pass ogre or the shinobi hunter at hirita estate). Eventually I came back to it and started a new game, made it through, and it is now my favorite game of all time. It’s hard to describe how rewarding finally beating isshin is, as I really did play the game totally blind. But it’s probably also my favorite boss fight in any game.
For DSP to so clearly hate the entire process of getting to the end, and then just look up strats and/or video of the fight is pathetic and so opposite to the spirit of the game. For me it’s also so obviously cheated because of how aggressive Phil plays him, after spending the entire game running around like a total pussy. And to celebrate and brag because of “how much quicker” he beats him… it’s just like wow you really are pathetic and afraid of looking bad. Incredibly sad.
