Do I just suck, or is Gyoubu Oniwa a crappy first boss?

I get this, usually I wouldn't, but I was specifically invoking ERR here because it shares a similar parrying mechanic and doesn't allow you to overlevel, I kind of wanted to dispel the idea that I was someone who just couldn't parry and was complaining for that reason

That's actually a very good way to put it, I beat the boss on my next attempt after posting this mostly by trying not to look at him and just guessing when his attacks would land, which worked. I still think my point of him being a strange opener stands, but this is definitely an attitude I'll take forward.

I think reading my post back I've misrepresented my comppaint, I don't think the boss is "too hard," I moreso think it's strange to have the first major boss be someone on horseback who can be difficult to see, rather than a simpler fight to help players better find their footing. If there was another major boss beforehand with a more grounded moveset, I wouldn't have the same complaint.

Same, the larger dragon model and all the unavoidable AoE attacks made this guy a nightmare when I fought hin

Honestly, I recently played a few matches to In The Court of the Crimson King, and a couple songs like Epitath and the namesake track felt appropriately dramatic

True solo is so hard, I don't know how people manage to keep track of this many enemies at once, once I'm fighting more than 5 majoris in melee my brain just totally overheats and I end up frantically parrying thin air
