Notorious Sekiro speedrunner LilAggy beats Isshin blindfolded with monitors off on stream

LilAggy, a streamer known for not only constantly beating his own previous world records speedrunning Sekiro,
but also finding fun, new ways to play this piss easy game, like with a DDR Dancepad, Rockband drums or holding the xbox controller WITH HIS FEET, has managed to beat the final boss completely blindfolded.

I'm aware bullshitting blindfold is a thing in the speed-running scene. Just watch it. The second camera behind him is showing his setup, both monitors off. This is what fighting a boss 10000 times does to your brain.

Alright, fair enough, but you're not a true Sekiro player until you can play while a dominatrix slaps your balls in a vice and consistently berates your manhood while early 1900's southern baptist spiritual music plays loudly in the background and candle wax is dripping on your nipples.

Everyone knows that.....

Never trust blindfolded runs. In some of them, you can actually see through them.

Edit: this seems legit though.

It’s a rhythm game ;)
I don't know if you are being serious but I have seen video essays that say the same about all FROM games from Souls to Borne to Sekiro.
I myself, found Bloodborne had a lot of rhythm.
Now, you can say the same about any game and call it reaching a state of flow so there's that.

Totally serious. That’s probably how he beat it blindfolded. Hearing that clankity clank

Weird, I thought it was funny....I dunno man. Weird stuff happening around here lately. Think there may be some technical issues affecting some aspects of the site.

shit is not hard if you repeat it a thousand times over.
go play some COD on high ranks

He should try Killzone2 on Elite or Uncharted series on Brutal...
I'm not impressed at all. Basicly he tried 1000 times that sequence.

that’s cool. It isn’t like that the first time you fight him, but definitely something to admire. I have to wonder what From Software has up their sleeves. I can imagine this boss being one of their easier bosses over time. I wonder if Elden Ring will have a boss that will make this look like a cake walk.

While we're at it, here is something that absolutely blew my mind back in 2019...

Less than 2 months after the game was released, this guy drops a playthrough where he perfect parries every single enemy attack.

While constantly reading and responding to chat.

Very few cheese strats already discovered at that time, no blocking, no damage taken.

This is cool and all... but imagine what he could’ve learned outside of video games in the time it took him to do this — I’m assuming he could’ve learned a few musical instruments, read 100 literary classics, probably completed a PhD worth of education in independent pursuits.

I think I’m getting old.

I hated that boss and almost all future Miyazaki works because of it. Fuck Sekiro and that forced shitty parry mechanic, let me play as a samurai not as a fucking rhythm music game dressed of samurais.
 
Total respect for the dude. Remember taking me more than a week to beat this motherfucker. Would play for 1h every morning before going to work.
Almost broke the controller when I finally beat him for the first time.

Strangely enough, after you beat him once it's way way easier on the next attempts.

This is next level though, damn.

I don't see any point in this? Would he like a Blue Peter badge for this amazing achievement? This guy should get world recognition for this amazing life saving feat. Forget about doctors and nurses saving lives this is next gen stuff.
Now I understand why people like this have problems getting a girlfriend. Too much time spent in mom and dad's basement.
