I couldnt get the parry timing down either for one of his attacks where he sounds the trumpet before hand. After I died like 7 times I just dodged that attack when I saw it, His other attack I got the timing down for.

The freaking troubadour in the flying waters was tricky.

Stopped trying to parry him. Just dodging. Timing was tricky, but finally beat him on my 3rd try.

If this is the boss of the area then I think I'll be at him when I get to play this evening so good to know.

It is an optional mini boss.

Not the boss. Side enemy.

It’s legit fun. I’m addicted to the combat. Planning to do increased damage is so satisfying. Even taking time to really consider my equipment and how I want to combo. Amazing.

I have only parried. Never pressed dodge once. Parrying all the attacks to trigger the counter attack is 100% satisfying.

Story is great so far. I do get that classic FF 7,8,9,X feel. X more so than the rest.

The end of act 1 is an absolutely wild moment. This game is insanely spoilable, to the point screen shots could ruin future reveals. It’s annoying a bunch of YouTubers are using a playable character that wasn’t in any of the marketing in their videos image. I’d avoid all of them

Have avoided all spoilers so far thankfully.

Though I am having an issue with dodging with the monsters by the gestral village keep crashing into my party. I can’t seem to figure out if it’s a dodge or a jump but I’ve been hit by that bs after every battle.

You can only jump attacks that have the yellow signal for it. Everything else can be dodged or parried. You unlock more defensive options later but the game tutorializes them.

This is specifically after you kill one of those enemies by the gestral village that crashes into the party after you defeat it? When should I time that dodge?

First game in a while to make me get up at 4am to squeeze in a couple hours before work. I think this is going to be one of my favorite games ever.

They sold over 500,000 copies in one day. This isnt counting gamepass. Really happy for them.

Love how you can beat any boss at any level.

I have taken down a couple of bosses that were killing me in one hit.

Wife would say they are too strong. I told her she lacked the testosterone to understand what’s about to happen and then proceeded the next 20mins learning the parry’s and landing the counters.

Btw. There have been some fricking bangers of some songs. There were two I can across around the floating water area or whatever fighting bosses. Added a little like trance/techno or something. Soooooo good.
