People Cant Handle Failing

[Ichbin]

Noticing the large amount of ppl complaining about the dodge/parry system, or boss abilities that completely take you out the fight.

I dont know if ppl knew this, but thats why there's a save system. See, the game auto saves you, so you go back and try again. It's revolutionary.

Seriously though, do ppl expect to just win at everything, first try?

+1 agree with you

This game just like Sekiro, Lies of P or any similar action game, player needs to memorize enemy pattern attack and timing when to press the button, and todo that player must not fear about failing and learn by doing.

This is rhytm game, not reaction game

I especially love people who play on Expert mode and still refuses to lower their ego and go down a difficulty if they get mopped.

I'm used to failure in video games, so I was able to surmount the challenges and finish the game!

I have always ignored every dodge parry block in games, too lazy. But something about this game resonated with me and I can't have anything except parry only Expert.

The parry is harder than dark souls because you need to parry at the moment when a monster hits your hitbox and there's no iframes for it. I love it, It's so difficult to pull off.
In dark souls, you can parry right when the monster swings at you, in this game, you parry at the right time or you fail.
dodging seems very easy to do though.

Thats the point. They expect you to dodge first, because it has a bigger window. When you got the pattern down, then start to parry, for those counter attacks.

I really like that one thread where the dude is like, "I'M TOO OLD TO PARRY FAST BOO HOO CHANGE THE GAME FOR US OLD PEOPLE!" and then a bunch of other old people are like "YEAH OLD PEOPLE WANNA PLAY! +1"

I'm probably older than most of them and I'm still enjoying the game. You should not change/rework the entire mechanics of a game just so XYZ-type of player can play happily too. Stop advocating for games to be 'made for everyone'. Made for everyone = made for no one. If it's not for you, THAT'S OKAY! Just play something else!

agreed while the timing can be finicky to figure out it never felt unfair, and if your still having trouble maybe try use the rpg side of the game and actually put some point into survivability attributes like health and defense to have more chances to learn the pattern
