How are people getting stuck on the tutorial boss?
Simple dodge ♥♥♥♥, get under him, boost to him, smack with melee, after two big hits he stuns, big dps with missiles, rinse and repeat. How hard is that to figure out. Praise the sun :praisesun::praisesun::praisesun:

I have no F'ing clue.
I killed that guy 1st try in 20 seconds or so. I would just jump into an OB then slash him, stand on the rim of the glass and repeat before he could move and had like 10% life left. Did 1 more OB toward him and slashed and he was dead.

thats what im saying like it took me 3 tries but that was mainly because i thought you had to jump to OB to him. once i figured you can do it from the ground it was game over for him

I also have no idea but I admit reading all those salty reviews with 30min playtime complaining about boss is hilarious and brings me joy. Too bad game score suffers

That's a basic strat in any bossfight. If you can react and dodge their attacks you don't need to memorize the pattern. If your response is slow then you need to learn the pattern. If you have slow response and no capacity to learn the pattern, that's the point where people get stuck.

So basically, Skill Issue.

The tutorial boss frankly is way tougher than it really should be, or more specifically, the game does a pretty bad job of informing you of how good your sword actually is.

because it's a ♥♥♥♥ game with horrible design, thank god some people refund this piece of ♥♥♥♥ after first boss, it only gets worse after tha boss. good for them.

Because nobody in their right mind would think that you should try to melee a flying helicopter that runs from you the entire fight. We get it you watched the videos and knew how to fight it before you ever got there. That is cool.

That fact that that is literally the ONLY WAY you can beat this boss is beyond idiotic.

I never played the old ones but i had no struggle even with a more tank like boss later. So far i love the game. But i have a feeling this game will suffer from succes like Eldenring did.

So, I refunded it too maybe I will come back to it. The problem for me is that the boss was not fun. Like I could not get to him with my sword because he always flies out of the arena and can't follow him. That is the problem with flying bosses you are stuck in a area and they are not. So you get pepperd by its guns and need to take cover and wait for him to come closser so you can strike him with the sword.

Also it is insane the game does not tell you. Sure simple to figure it out but for a tutorial boss? Love fromsoft games but yeah...

The reason why people are struggling because they are playing passive and do not take advantage of their Assault Boost.
The first mission doesn't really hold the player's hand or hint to use assault boost on the helicopter.
Melee weapon will be the main weapon to beat that level.

The game is solely about "gameplay" and "bosses" while everything else is just there.

im reading alot of salt in this but lets be real just keep moving and shooting dont stand in one spot for too long and youll be fine. Treat this more like Bloodborne where you need to keep playing aggressive dont sit back and wait for an opening like Dark Souls

Its pretty poor design.

1st Attempt; Boss shows up I get stomped. That's cool. Reload checkpoint.
2nd Attempt: Boss shows up, we fight for awhile, I realize assault rush/melee kills him but die first. Reload checkpoint.
3rd Attempt: Beating boss. He exits combat area and deletes me. Annoyed. Reload Checkpoint.
4th Attempt: Beating boss. He exits combat area and deletes me. Refund Game.

I'm not here for the "git gud" comments. That's poor design and if you're rocking that on a tutorial boss I have no interest in the other cheesy stuff that awaits.

I want a hard and challenging game. I'm cool with getting stomped to learn a lesson in gameplay. In this particular fights its too be aggressive. What I'm not cool is nonsense game design that potentially punishes me for playing the way the game is supposed to be played.
