06-05-2019 08:56:30 < syv!syvarris@xrtzap-632-643-651-35.mycingular.net: Sekiro's combat system, but you're dual wielding two weapons, both of which can attack and deflect indepentantly.  Double deflects and double attacks carry extra boons if used correctly but can screw you over is misused.  Multiple independent styles which can be applied to your weapons, affecting what the buttons do; full offense and full defense are options, along with a couple specialty styles.  Many enemies might *require*
06-05-2019 08:56:40 < syv!syvarris@xrtzap-632-643-651-35.mycingular.net: This will never happen and that makes me sad.

06-05-2019 08:57:23 < syv!syvarris@xrtzap-632-643-651-35.mycingular.net: Combat arts would simply be the results of double attacks with specific style combinations.

06-05-2019 08:58:01 < ER!ER@63-39-173-041.dhcp.hckr.nc.charter.com: would a shield be one of the weapon options? :P
06-05-2019 08:58:25 < syv!syvarris@xrtzap-632-643-651-35.mycingular.net: No, you just get two katanas or something.  But you get a defensive katana style.
06-05-2019 08:59:05 < ER!ER@63-39-173-041.dhcp.hckr.nc.charter.com: duel wielding two of the same weapon no matter what? gross~
06-05-2019 08:59:38 < syv!syvarris@xrtzap-632-643-651-35.mycingular.net: Maaaybe throw in some mageblade stuff, so you can unlock an enchant that effectively makes a katana work as a greatsword, which uses an effect like the ivory king greatsword from DaS 2.
06-05-2019 09:03:43 < syv!syvarris@xrtzap-632-643-651-35.mycingular.net: Five basic styles; mixed standard, basically Sekiro's default.  Full offense, probably something more like Sabimaru, very fast rapid hits, with no less damage.  Full defense, with attack being the default deflect, and deflect being full block (normal deflect should work like Kuro's charm, or at least have SOME chip damage).  Stabby style, which is like standard attacks but a little slower, with the same dps but more ranhe.  G
06-05-2019 09:15:33 < Devastator!chatzilla@hjfu-5j4qr4bm1kpz732e7gn50mdb8.ipv6.telus.net: stabby style..

06-05-2019 09:16:53 < Devastator!chatzilla@hjfu-5j4qr4bm1kpz732e7gn50mdb8.ipv6.telus.net: indeed.
06-05-2019 09:17:57 < syv!syvarris@xrtzap-632-643-651-35.mycingular.net: Guns don't sync well with Sekiro's combat.

06-05-2019 09:18:39 < Devastator!chatzilla@hjfu-5j4qr4bm1kpz732e7gn50mdb8.ipv6.telus.net: gun fu.
06-05-2019 09:19:41 < syv!syvarris@xrtzap-632-643-651-35.mycingular.net: Hum.  Since I've got five styles there, and already was thinking mage blade, could have all five styles have a elementally boost version, which would take place of Sekiro's tools.  China has a five-element system, and Sekiro is Eastern, so it'd make sense to use that...
06-05-2019 09:20:59 < syv!syvarris@xrtzap-632-643-651-35.mycingular.net: Chinese elements are wood->fire->earth->metal->water, looping.  Aaand I know nothing of their symbolism, so that's all I can theorycraft.  :\
06-05-2019 09:21:17 < ER!ER@63-39-173-041.dhcp.hckr.nc.charter.com: yup~
06-05-2019 09:22:26 < syv!syvarris@xrtzap-632-643-651-35.mycingular.net: As a bonus, if you made the elemental lore thing core to the combat system, you could base enemy movesets off the same styles, and have their weaknesses be implied by which element they're using.  Elemental rock paper scissors, except it's actually pointing out what they're bad at countering.
06-05-2019 09:25:19 < syv!syvarris@xrtzap-632-643-651-35.mycingular.net: So you'd still get the prosthetic counter system Sekiro has; axe beats shield, shuriken beats flying, poison beats women, firecrackers beat everyth--beasts.  But instead of "press L1 to win", you'd still have to learn their moveset and how to counter it.  With the limited elemental boosts just ming the counter strats trivial, so id you hate one style of enemy, you can just use your consumable silver bullets on them.
06-05-2019 09:26:25 < syv!syvarris@xrtzap-632-643-651-35.mycingular.net: I've now come up with a way to rewrite Sekiro's system into something I'd like while everyone else would probably just hate it.
06-05-2019 09:26:46 < ER!ER@63-39-173-041.dhcp.hckr.nc.charter.com: sounds terrible
06-05-2019 09:27:15 < syv!syvarris@xrtzap-632-643-651-35.mycingular.net: Obviously I need to systemize this into a PbP game.
