    We not talkin Sekiro specifically tho, is we cabron. We talkin bout that weak ass response about Japanese theater in relation to shinobi and samurai XD

    Ay all I know is that it was depicted in theater. Have no idea how accurate it was, considering the things I've seen depicted in European theater I had my doubts XD

    No shit XD 

    Ok, try and run up on someone’s crib in red and yellow without getting caught and tell me how that goes XD 

    As far as Sekiro goes it wouldn't matter considering everyone attacks you on sight anyways ;)
    Hell in game clothing is distinctive anyways. You gotta look at it as if a spy is trying to infiltrate the enemy. Would be better to dress and pose as a lowly peasant then dress pitch black.

    *Just saw this now.*

    From the historical context of what we know about Shinobis, they were not the Western stereotypes in media...but they almost always wore black or deep blue colored (which was the preferred) equipment to help them blend in the shadows if they were doing there traditional line of work, as they were almost always active during the night.  Sekiro's orange Hattori makes sense in the context he's acting as a bodyguard to Kuro, and that indeed they often wore actual armor. but he shouldn't be wearing it after the intro since he's now in deep enemy held territory, going on a solo infiltration. Orange colors are ill suited for blending in.  But then again, you don't have to play it stealthy if you don't want to.

    Furthermore, whilst Samurai were expressively forced to have a very strictly controlled "hige" (beard or mustache)  Shinobi (specifically Wolf in this case) were a bunch of smelly peasants, that would have grown their hair long keeping it wild, and have super shaggy  beards.  Hence the beard is not weeby, but period accurate. 

    >Mentions period accuracy.

    >Using later Japanese theater for shinobi black clothing.

    I just beat the game and good god with absolute certainty the final boss (at least the ending I chose, which has the hardest version of the ending) is the hardest boss Fromsoft has ever made.

    At this point in time I'd like to consider myself damn skilled at Dark Souls and slightly above average in Bloodborne, but by god did I have my ass handed to me time and time again for the better part of an hour and thirty.

    Of course he's an old man :rofl:
