How SEKIRO: SHADOWS DIE TWICE
Taught Me To Play STREET FIGHTER 6
(this one is also from a couple
months ago. we’re caught up
now though. more soon!)
As far back as I can remember, I always wanted to be good at Street Fighter. I was never really good enough to compete with family, friends, and strangers on the internet. But after playing SEKIRO: SHADOWS DIE TWICE, I found my self playing video games differently. SEKIRO taught me how to get good at STREET FIGHTER 6. This is the story of how it happened and how the devils in my brain affect me in one very specific way.
