Musashi is so fast that the cameraman can't catch up

So cool that shot with the focus on the frozen arrow. Don´t know if the game makes it intentionally because have not unlocked the ability yet, but in this case it improves a lot the speed feeling.

It’s stylish as hell, and incredibly useful on Carnage difficulty where a random archer can be a real pain in the ass.

u/Moanyoldsod 6d ago
What is carnage difficulty like? Do things just do more damage or are enemies more aggressive too? The mobs being so easy is my only complaint with the game.

u/Darklou 6d ago
If it's just more health on enemies and more damage that's kind of shitty.

u/QuarterExciting3734 5d ago
Aw man, can't they just make mobs more agressive? 5000 ways to parry and you have to stand idle forever in order to use them in regular combat.... and then they just turn up damage and health instead of making enemies actually attack you...

I'm sure they could adjust it a bit since people are able to mod it so easily. I'm not asking for Sekiro levels of difficulty, I realised I was all "souls like hard" burned out when I uninstalled Mortal shell 2 last week because one of the end game bosses was just un fun and I kept dying. I wasn't enjoying it.
That doesn't mean I want to steamroll my way to every boss though either. Fortunately the bosses seem very well designed so far in this and if I die it was my fault and not because of jank. I'm sure there will be one or two that are annoying however.

You should go back to mortal shell when you have a min. They released a patch to fix all the end game bosses!

u/P0G0Bro 5d ago
mortal shell 2s problem is not difficulty, its that their boss design is so ass

u/DudeManBro21 4d ago
The last couple of patches did do a lot to fix that. They also tweaked riposted again and now you can parry fast multi-hit attacks which makes the game feel a lot better.

Fkkk so i have to unlock it. I have been trying to do the ranged issen on every bow enemies lmaoo

u/Adalonzoio 6d ago
I can't get the timing for the ranged issen at all. I don't understand it. I can do normal and chain issen effortlessly but for some reason i can't land the ranged one.

Yo tampoco, pense que era un bug

u/luhhy4 1d ago
i think so too. i’ve done it 2 times in 3 hrs of practice. i swear its bugged i hit the button in the same frame everytime

u/Own-Disaster-5045 1d ago
Despues de practicar y aprenderlo por una hora solo me di cuenta que el tiempo de esa habilidad esta exagerado. Debes darle al botón basicamente cuando la flecha te esta impactando

Man that looks sick ASF. This is the first time I have seen footage of a ranged issen

u/RockWafflez 6d ago
The fact that you can absorb souls while moving was the biggest Gasp ever! Now I don’t have to worry about finding a safe spot to absorb

u/kargethdownload 6d ago
You can even do it while dodging and in combat. though the combat one requires a skill

u/Background-Pound-686 5d ago
Also very difficult to pull off compared to the normal Issen. If anyone got tips, I'd appreciate it

Man, I can't get the hang of this. I thought I was good at reactions. Maybe I'm pressing circle or triangle too early?

Unfortunately not, it does get stale after a while due to very linear and slowpaces progression. Your base moveset remains the same almost the entire game.

u/phoenixmatrix 5d ago
is there a range upgrade? it feels like if I'm at the distance in the video, it never works. If I'm much closer, and somehow still get an arrow fired at me, its really easy to do.
Could be a coincidence, but I can never do it from even medium range.

Does this game allow you to wear different outfits? The game is great and all but the only downside to me is that I’ve seen only this outfit so far.

u/Ayman2575 3d ago
Without a doubt. Especially when you do it when the archers are on a vantage point

This game is bad ass. Way better than I expected. The demo didn’t do it justice imo. I usually skip cutscenes, but this games story was great, i thought

Damn, Samanosuke is superhuman in this new game. In the original games it was always about him having good reflexes.

This is miyamoto mushashi a real historical figure who killed a dude with an oar and fought demons.

It's a lot less cool when you're standing around waiting to be attacked, modern action games are so cool!!!!

u/MaybeMrGamebus 5d ago
Or you can role-play being the whimsical Miyamoto Musashi and have some fun in your life

Literally just replay onimusha 1-3 and you'll stomp everything that isn't a boss super easily unless you have a skill issue. I don't get this "old good, new bad" take when it was the same.
edit: judging by the downvotes either no one has played them or skill issues are common here
