To People Struggling With The QTE

[Mugiwara]

I get it. I like JRPGs and turn based games too. I also like action games and games that try something innovative. I understand that QTE are not going to appeal to everyone and the window for performing the parries are limited.

So save yourself the bother and consider downloading this mod:

this is funny. people who ask about it mostly want an explain to the system, so they can get gud not cheat their way or making the game easier.

On normal difficulty parries and dodges are basically optional. I may try to do a no block/parry build on the hardest difficulty once I beat the game just to see if it's possible (besides for the prologue), but you can definitely play this game as a traditional JRPG on normal diff

Sorry to say this so plainly, but there really isn't anything to explain either you get the timing right or you don't.

There are two tells from what I have seen: 1: is sound 2: is a change in direction of enemy attacks (not all of them however).

There is a litany of threads complaining calling it bugs etc. Then there are unhelpful comments "git gud".

This is a genuine option whether you agree with it or not. I fail to see how options are a bad thing.
