I haven't read through this thread because I want to stay as blind as possible, but I can say for anyone who enjoys jRPGs and wants an interesting story set in a beautiful (but eerie) world... stop what you're doing and buy this game ASAP

I really hate that I have no time to play this right now. Cant wait til I get a few days to dive in

Update on current time dodge button has been pressed: 0

And I haven’t really died that much. Maybe a couple times at first just to learn and get the timing. Have yet to be frustrated with a battle that wasn’t the last volly.

I must suck at video gaming now.

I don’t know how you can do that.

There are a few enemies that I exclusively dodge.

The bourgeons (giant ones that eat a character) for one.

I’m playing on hard and I still die a bunch.

I usually die at least once to a boss or chromatic before I get their moveset partially figured out.

I try to parry everything, but if some specific attack or part of an attack sequence really fricks me up I’ll dodge instead.

Same. Some attack patterns just throw me for a loop.

Then you throw in jumping and the different types of parry…

Sometimes I just don’t have the skill.

The slow attacks frick me up more than the fast. I hit it to early every frickin time. The lampmaster has that huge sweeping 1 swing attack that is so easy to parry and I’d be to early on it every time and it’d wipe me out

Stubborn. Probably autistic.

This is really one of the only games I’m good at parrying. You would laugh at me attempting to parry in sekiro. I’m trash.

But I have made it a goal to play the whole game without dodging unless forced by the game.

On that note, apparently the head dev speed runs sekiro.

Anyone else thought their game was broken when fighting the jumping rock? Holy shite my palms were sweaty after that.

So they're going for the "universally loved favorite developer" achievement?

You have to parry those.

I’m assuming you are talking about the attack that makes your person vanish, the one that makes the screen gray.

You cannot dodge those.

Wonderful

The RNG on this boss is atrocious.

This is the best game released in years

Did I hear right that the entire dev team is comprised of laid off Ubisoft workers?

If so, it explains the generic slop Ubi is peddling. . .they laid off the creative talent

I would happily pay 10-20$ for DLC just to support Sandfall.

Many of the 33 people at Sandfall did come from Ubisoft, including the CEO and creative director for Expedition 33. The last game he worked on for them was Ghost Recon breakpoint. It just goes to show a lot of these people are actually talented they are just completely suffocated by these large publishers.
