What I already have:
Lies of P, Black Myth Wukong, Elden Ring, Ghost of Tushima.

Original Post
==========
Elden Ring and other Souls-like where you dodge roll like a chicken isn't appealing to me.
However I do understand that I need to move onto other games and after watching a few videos and reading reviews it feels like Lies of P is the next step. However Elden Ring is still in my consideration since I haven't spoiled this game for myself by watching videos of it unlike Sekiro.

I did play the new monkey game, but the animation locks are huge in that game and every enemy likes to dance before attacking instead of you know, attacking you immediately, so that is still down the list.

Ghost of two-sima is in the library but there is something off putting about it's combat. I can't put my finger on it.

Thoughts? And is there another game that is not here that might be worth considering?

I am trying to run away from the games I prefer. Games I preferred were sweaty multiplayer CS and Valorant mainly because they only had servers where I live. I don't mind going into any genre, I just don't want a movie disguised as a game like Uncharted 4.
Try Nioh 2
Or nier automata

what do you like about sekiro, then?

You shouldn't play ghost of tsushima vs ac series because sekiro sets the bar too high. I recommend hollow knight.

Try Sifu:

https://store.steampowered.com/app/2138710/Sifu/

Someone already accused me of being a Sifu shill, and I genuinely wish I was being payed to rep that game as hard as I try to, but is simply a game I love.

While the game structure is shorter (it's a stage-based beat 'em up brawler), no other game has used a system as similar to Sekiro’s deflection as well as Sifu has. I'm sure Lies of P is a fine choice too, I'm just throwing Sifu in the ring so you might consider it. And while Sifu might be similar to Sekiro, it's overall a fairly different beast and one well worth learning as a new thing as opposed to coming at it with the Sekiro mindset.

I hope you give it a shot. And just to be clear, while the main campaign might be somewhat short, getting the true ending takes a good bit of practice, and there's a higher difficulty, combat modifiers and an arena challenge mode to try as well. There's plenty of replayability.
Also there is nine sols, basically hollow sekiro.

Nine Sols: You are not the first person to recommend that. Huh! Must be worth checking out

I keep hearing Hollow Knight again and again. Might as well get it.

I gave it a shot before Sekiro but maybe it will be better the second time. Alright, will get that too.

Games that are skill based. Something that can be mastered.
