Fuxi and Nuwa fight is so fun
Genuinely when you get the parry timings down this game feels so satisfying and fun to play. Especially in this fight when it's pretty much nonstop parries. I might be biased in terms of skill level since I already beat sekiro, so I understand this game is hard for a lot of people learning the mechanic for the first time, but I just love fights like this one so much. Keep trying! This game is very rewarding once it finally clicks.

100%, the Jiequan fight was SO fun. Once you get the patterns, it just looks so cool fighting him, and you feel like an absolute bad ass nailing all the parries and everything.

Currently fighting true ending Eigong and I couldn't agree more. I'm also coming from Sekiro so it clicked very fast for me. It's been a blast. This will be one of those games that I will wish I could play for the first time again.

Fuxi is not fun? The second phase is absolute ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥. Whoever thought it was a good idea to put in a caster that ♥♥♥♥♥ out abilities that directly impede your ability to parry the main attack of him is insane.

I think the same, the unbound parry doesn't make sense in the second phase because its always paired with the 2 flying swords, and the fire that it leaves makes it impossible to maneuver.

First phase was ok tho

admittedly those two weren't that fun to fight compared to previous bosses. Phase 1 is full of predictable attacks, main danger is merely high damage if you're actually hit. Phase 2 addition seemed more "annoying" than fun to repel in addition to main attacks. Maybe my attention isn't that good, but it just didn't feel well.

the trick to the unbound parry there is to HOLD the button after parrying the second sword, I also didn't intuit it the first time I fought them and only found this out after reading it on the forum. I think phase 2 in general is fine, the only attack I'm not sure about is when it drops the snakes in an alternate pattern, it always feels to close with parry knockback even if I don't get hit.

The trick with the alternating snakes is to stand under a snake to parry the first charging swipe, it will knock you into the safe spot.

I have my own strategy for the second phase with the Red attack + swords combo.

When he starts doing the animation for a red attack and the swords appear. Run away from him and jump, Parry the two swords in the air and the dash away from the red. That is the safest option.

There another strategy, but sometimes it doesnt work.

Where he charges the red attack and the swords appear, quickly shoot him with the standart arrow. It can stun him. But in my attempt where i beat them. 1 out of 3 tries he didnt react to the arrow.

With the sideways snake. Double jump above it but be prepared for a uppercut from the boss.

With the snakes going along the whole ceiling. From what i noticed you just need to run, theres always a safe space at the end that doesnt spawn snakes. BUT im not sure about it.

kinda hard to pay attention to the fight with the dancing cat girls in the background tbh, that's my only issue with it
