Huh didn't realise there was a thread for this, here's what i posted in the General thread:
Sairento is a game that gets better as you get better at it. The control system is a bit clunky at first, but you'll soon be zipping about.
I have a few videos on my channel going over the controls, options and weapons in the game.
Ahh cool, watched some, you didnt seem to go over blocking?
I kinda thought the Glaive might be good for blocking, as it's quite large on-screen, but it's less shield-like than hoped.
Will try cranking up (running) movement speed, smooth turning, blinders off, and controller movement direction - might make it seem more FPS like.
Sairento is good. ... But when you embrace the over the top ninja control scheme, it becomes a lot of fun indeed.
I'm getting better but not up to the flipping stuff pc videos show.
Just need the level 200 for the plat now, so each night doing a bit of grind levels. Not sure the best way to level xp? i'm running story mission 10 on shinobi difficulty, despite the talky bit at the end, it seems faster than the random missions.
EDIT: DING!
and plat.
Digging thru my vids and found a level of Sairento. I was well over level 100 at this point, hence almost constant slo-mo
