Is it a parry game?

Saw parrying in the trailer, is it like Dark Souls where it's optional or Sekiro where you're supposed to just parry everything.

depends on the shell and items, some are based around parry, some around dodge, etc

no, y can use EZ mode for noobs

Its not a parry game its an offense game. Your goal is to do infinite damage in the shortest time possible without getting hit.

Parrying is the strongest form of defense and it isn't even close.

the parry doesnt even work correctly. You can completely release the guard/parry button and if you press it too fast it wont register anything. too slow you drop your guard. either way youre dead

Then you can dodge and enemies will still 180 mid attack and hit you

i have tried it on multiple keys, mouse and even controller. Parry is broken and doesnt work. I have played and beat most every parry game i have ever played, including Sekiro

there is NO reason why they parry should be THIS DAMN unresponsive
