I think they are fundamentally different experiences. In the sense of sekiro was a very fast paced parry heavy souls game that when I first played it (granted I was much younger and have yet to come back to it) wasn’t for me. The open worldness and the style of combat of elden ring was much more my speed and I genuinely had a blast learning areas, finding bosses that I would get stuck on for weeks only to master the “ins and outs” of that particular boss. It was much more slowed down and made the souls experience more palatable for me personally. I have huge admiration for sekiro players that are really good because it’s so fun to watch a master at that game. I think if you enjoy the slower experience elden ring is a great place to jump in. I think if you enjoy the faster paced souls experience you’ll have fun with sekiro.
