Why is this game such cheap shit?
Where are you stuck?
Sword Saint
Damn, yeah, he wrecked my shit for two hours before I beat him.
what specifically is cheap about it?
Laggy controls and expecting all players to work with 1ms deflect windows
i'm not sure what you mean by laggy controls, but you actually have a lot longer than 1 millisecond to deflect attacks. you could try practicing your reactions on early game enemies if you're struggling
This is true. Just agro some easy guys and only deflect their attacks
You have a ton of time to deflect, I actually felt the game was really lenient with the deflect timing, you should probably just get better at timing.
Yeah this. This solution pretty much covers you the entire game. Don't mash deflect. Click with the enemies attacks.
It's a From Software game.
You have a serious issue with pattern recognition.
I've never had a laggy control problem n. Sounds like you're not reacting fast enough
you're just bad
keep going and gitgud
The only cheap shit is the prosthetic arm bullshit, but they had to add something for zoomers.
No shit I know a fat kid that has already used to speedrunning technique to cheese the first boss before even attempting legit and is currently looking at a guide for firecrackers before he even attempts the bull.
New generation is ADHD retards that wouldn't last 2 days in the wild.
Try practicing on the guy at the starter temple to work on your timings. Another key skill is counter attack with LB then RB. Deflect then immediately strike to chip down their health and build posture damage.
I'm playing this thing blind and getting wrecked constantly.
>thought Genichiro battle was some special battle that should only be done later on
>went all the way to the Mibu village and collected shelter stone before actually realizing i was supposed to fight Genichiro first
WTF.
It literally does not have a single cheap moment in the entire game. Every single enemy and encounter is 100% fair.
Stop playing on console dumbfuck, not the games fault. No delay here on PC.
>Not even the hardest boss

I did the same. Illusionary corrupted monk kept kicking my ass until I figured her out, then I went back and destroyed genichiro in two tries. Really forced me to improve, at least
Genichiro is the games first serious casual filter I think.
The monk is where i really got the hang of the parry stuff. I wasn't aware that sweep attacks could be "stopped", after i learned it, it got much easier.
With how forgiving the parry timing is most deaths i get are my fault not the games mechanics
Yes, plus some of his bow moves take too much HP, so if you have too few health bottles to use, getting to the 3rd round can be difficult. I had 9 health bottles when i finally faced him.
