The loading times for fast travel are also very short.
Seriously? Meta has 11 reviews and 89 score. OpenCritic has 35 reviews and a 92 score. It's the highest rated From game right now.

Well, its also a pretty safe bet with From Software. They have proven they can deliever games without awful delays and seemingly on budget (as far as I know).
Gonna have to play sekiro on PC with cheat engine... (this was the only way I could get through most of nioh)
Glad the game is great!

That was for the majority of the outlets. Major outlets were, however, given review codes a lot early.
It's 92 on OpenCritic. Meta suffers the usual "which platform is which" and weird weighting.
Open has been, for a while now, the superior aggregate service.
It always makes me sad when people call Edge 'edgy' because they give games low reviews.
Has anyone mentioned game length? I have a hard time understanding how expansive this game is.
Wow that's a lot for a non-RPG. Does the game have a slow pace like the Souls games perhaps?
Yeah,that platform splitting in MC is shite.
What's interesting though is that the game has not dropped below 80/100 in a single review,which I find pretty amazing
Off topic, but can Resetera give us a tick box option to hide polls on threads like this, they're always super annoying at the top of every single page (or maybe even restrict them to the first page or something).
I'm thinking of traversing the world. Or do you run around and jump into action with little thought?
Looks like that would get you killed quickly unless you're good. There are stealth elements but even that looks much faster than most stealth games.
You have a grappling hook and can get around very quickly with it.
I hate this gen:

Yep, been exclusive to OpenC once I started the Fantasy League thing... it's much cleaner and nicer. I hate the divided Metacritic thing.
(My league is losing hard though)
Me? Almost immediately. The game? We've heard anywhere between 20-50 hours.
Perfect, thanks! That's roughly what I was hoping for. Should be able to finish it before Days Gone comes out, though I do tend to take my time with FROM's games. Recently replayed Bloodborne and Dark Souls plus their DLCs. Bloodborne was 60 hours and Dark Souls was 70, and I've played both games a fucking lot.
I'll definitely be at the higher end for Sekiro too, I assume.
no no no, i just subbed to gamefly and want to resist having to play this now...........fuck me, why did it have to score so good and the impressions being off the chart
it was at 91 this morning, at 89 right now on MC. Unless more places tank it, ~ 89-90 MC looks like the final score.
It's only gotten a fraction of what will eventually be its final reviews (11 out of ~70-80 for a game of this scale). The game looks great but it's way too early for people to count their chicks before they hatch.
The reviews are split up among 3 platforms. It's not at all indicative of an actual aggregate.
Please people: if you're going to use an aggregate, use an actual aggregate.
Which one is more important to the devs and 90% of the people? Metacritic or opencritic? The answer should be obvious
If i am aware my LG C7 does 120hz doesn't it..................in 1080p, but still seems like the best way to play it for me with HDR.
Sure!
"Sekiro: Shadows Die Twice might not give birth to a new genre as FROM Software did with the Souls series, but it's fresh constituent components sure make it feel that way. It's not only a testament for hardcore players and Souls fans alike, but also a game that will be remembered as a classic of this generation -and without a doubt a strong 2019 GOTY contender".

Considering one (OpenCritic) is representative of the game across all platforms and the other (MetaCritic) is not, I agree--it should be obvious.
YES! This was my Demons Souls experience and the following games lost that since I was too practiced at them.
Every souls game for me is at least 70-80 hours in the first run...
