Anybody playing Sifu? It's fucking rad. Best I've done is get to the last level at age 45 but the boss is beating my fucking ass.

I don't know if it's because I'm old af now and I'll never be good at anything ever again, and the games aging mechanic really drives my mortality home while I'm getting the shit kicked out of me, or if the game is just that fucking hard. I've enjoyed spending the last few nights playing until I scream and/or cry though.

    There's an article (I haven't read) about how they weren't particularly sensitive with the culture. But I haven't noticed anything overt. The story is pretty much a standard revenge story. I haven't beat it yet, but it's implied that maybe the gang killed your father for a good reason. And the usual "forgiveness will set you free" type stuff with a VERY obtuse way to spare the bosses the game doesn't even tell you about.

    But I am not a smart man. There's every chance I'm not seeing something that is there. I'm just mainly getting my ass beat and sometimes I get a few good punches in along the way.
