    Don't parry by tapping block

    Try to parry by holding block and let go of the block button and then immediately hold block again

    That will make you parry the attack the moment you hold block the second time and you don't get hit if you mess up

    Couldbt you just spam block at that point

    I purposely avoid games like this. This, Bloodborne, Souls, Cuphead, Etc.

    It’s jus not worth the frustration. I play games to relax and escape and punishing myself wit stupidly hard s*** like this is the complete opposite of that.

    Working on this now. I haven't beaten the bull but ended up in hinata estate and I'm doing better. Not dying to everything in sight.

    This game different than souls for sure

    I'd say out of all the bosses/mini bosses the bull is the most different. You just chip away and run around him more.

    Other enemies you want to be aggressive with but you just have to learn their attack patterns as parrying is more needed.

    Don't forget you manage your posture as well by holding the block button. This game is more aggressive in a sense because if you let enemies rest too long their own posture goes down. But as you chip away at their health their posture damage stays up longer.

    Understandable. At least in dark souls and bloodborne you can add another player makes the game 5x easier and more fun.

    I think those 2 games are the perfect level of difficulty for me.

    So you're already at ashina's castle and you only beat 1 main boss (bosses that give you attack power) right?

    Yes. I also used the bell to unlock the Hiroshima estate. Idk how far I am into that. I'm getting there so far. Maybe halfway through I'm st the main hall.

    But then I went back to beat the bull and followed that to the castle.

    Idk what's supposed to be first but I think theyll both be about the same level of difficulty

    I beat the game several times and I always beat the horse boss first and then travel back in time and beat every boss including the main one there

    Alright I'll give it a shot. I hope I get to see why people think it's amazing. I think it's good. Maybe more challenging for me than all the souls games. Parrying is getting better

    Isshin The Sword Saint that second phase

    legit probably took 200 tries to beat isshin my first playthrough

    somehow breezed through the game up til then, but that fight basically forced me to get good

    on the plus side, i learned how to smack genichiros baby ass around with my eyes closed so i always looked forward to his fights afterward

    Only game I played so far from Soft but once you get it down, it's hard to lose the momentum again.

    I'll recommend finding a good rest spot with a soldier or two close by and just try to grasping the combat, once you get the timing down it's get easier and the game gets a lot more fun but then it kinda turns it on it's head several time lol

    the key to winning is to be super offensive, if you let him control the fight you'll get annihilated.. especially on ng+ without the charm
