Game is way too hard

[Silentbird66]

Honeslty the combat in this game is just 100% ♥♥♥♥♥♥ like jesus christ, im trying to fight that ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ bandit leader runk or whatever his name is and iv died about 30 times I cant even touch the guy, the AI never runs out of stanima, he dodges all attacks, he has perfect blocks, and his attacks about 4 shot you its ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ retarted and not fun to play its not even a matter of being hard like a Dark souls game, this is just busted.....

lol.

I love this so much. It's time devs stop catering to you plebs.
Dark Souls is as artificially difficult as it can get, nothing really difficult about it, just memorize and stat up against extreme multipliers of hp and dmg. The weakest, cheapest, easiest way of making anything "difficult".

[TheLuckyAce]

Where did you fight him? At the beginning (first encounter?) because there you CANNOT win by default.
Later on you need Training, Armor and Skill... he is not an untrained peasant he is fairly skilled.

And on the 7th day the lord proclaimed git gud

loled on this one

If its the first fight in the village you're supposed to lose as far as i'm aware.

While I am enjoying the game for the most part, despite it being the buggiest "large title" release I have ever played. I think the combat is a huge hit and miss. I've had plenty of good fights where they were fun and "even" but I've had just as many where some random PoS bandit in the woods will nine strike combo you, block everything and never run out of stamina. Plenty of nearly nude bandits have had these traits too, there is no way thats intended, if it is whoever decided that should be shot from a cannon.

I know what some people will say, but I fully believe that some NPC's are bugged. And with how awful the game is in its current state regarding bugs, anyone who denies that being possible is just dumb.

dude grind your way to the top first and then aim for the win.

[Silentbird66]

no the second fight....you fight him one on one

[Julius]

I really hope you're trying to beat him in the first village encounter :D

"A game where I'm not winning 100% of the time?! WTF?!?!?!"

[Pflaumenkuchen1]

git gud.
On a serious note. As you may know your skill for everything slowly progresses as you use that skill. Soo maybe go do some practice fighting and come back later or kill that dude with a bow or kill him while hes asleep or poison his food or wine. there are so many options. Dont just charge in head first if you cant beat him. Think. plan.

Some advice:
Start the questline at Rattay, there you can treat yourself to some proper training. With that your personal and ingameskills rise up pretty fast. In the beginning a highwayrobber with linencloth ♥♥♥♥♥♥ me up pretty bad, now i´m slowly starting to clear banditoutposts. Once you actually manage to chain some combos it REALLY gets interesting!

[Crusher]

You need to feint attacks and chain it with combos, then it won't be so hard to hit him. My only struggle with that fight was that I didn't start back at full hp when the cutscene ♥♥♥♥♥ dragged me into it.

[SadisticNemesis]

You're not mean't to beat that guy you cretin lol.

[Silentbird66]

its ok I just beat him, there are some barrels in the back of the room run ontop of them and he cant touch you :D just shot arrows into his head until he died

[Matheuz]

c u gotta be creative! :D ahahaha
