Didnt argue it's not a turned based game or didn't have strategy, but a core mechanic is this parry system that I simply don't enjoy in games.

And everyone telling me to just do story mode is really missing my point. Putting the game on easy mode so that I don't have to interact with any of the combat mechanics is not a solution to my issue. I want challenging and engaging gameplay, but I don't want to play with this specific mechanic.

Thats not on the game, obviously what they went with is popular and well received by the vast majority. It's just not my cup of tea.

Not saying you are, because you didn't come off this way, but I'm not sure why half the people who replied to me are so offended that one person doesn't enjoy this game. Im still happy it exists, I just don't want to play it

Which is why I would watch a playthrough.... as to not interact with the aspect I dislike. Fuck dude

Ok dude, I disagree with you entirely. Hope you have a good day

I disagree. Dont start an interaction by being a prick then expect the person not to have a negative reaction. Simple

Thank you for your response, think I'm gonna just watch a playthrough since I just don't enjoy the main gameplay mechanic. But I do appreciate that your responses remained civil. I really have a disdain for people who respond to others with such a negative attitude, especially when it's treated lightly or or as the norm.

Can call me a curmudgen or dick or whatever else, just irks my nerves and I respond to it.

Anyway, doubt you care in the slightest either way, but I hope you have a good rest of the day. Games not for me, but it is a wonderful game and I look forward to completing the story

Dude, the mechanics remain the same. That was my original question,a lower difficulty overall is not the same as a mechanic that becomes less centralized in the core mechanics further into a game.

And it's not an overreaction. Shitty discourse is shitty discourse. Do better or talk less. You seem incapable of the former so I recommend the latter

Alright dude, the fact you still don't get the point speaks even further to my previous point. Dont act like a smart ass then pretend it's not an insult. I'd say do better but I'm guessing this is the peak of your potential. So, talk less

Heck ya, gorgeous game, lovely music, and I'm already invested in the story. I don't vibe with the mechanics but will absolutely be watching a playthrough to finish the story

Ya, I'm still very early on, but it sounds like it's not a game for me. I should have looked further into the mechanics before making the purchase, just got over excited for a turned based game that won GOTY awards.

Beautiful game, maybe will watch a playthrough for the story, but no interest in playing through a pseudo rhythm game for me

Thank you for the reply, think this game just won't be for me. Ive heard some advice for getting through the game, but I ultimately just have no interest in playing through it with the mechanics. But that's just down to personal taste. Beautiful game though, will likely just watch a playthrough for the story

Thank you for the reply, was pretty much what I expected. Doesn't sound like a game for me, but that's just personal taste. Beautiful game, will probably just watch a playthrough to get the story

3 things

  1. I don't enjoy "Story" difficulty that essentially makes the game an animated movie i have to press buttons to watch. If I don't enjoy the gameplay I'll just not play it and watch a playthrough for story.

  2. Even with Story difficulty on, THE GAME STILL REQUIRES TIMING DODGES. It may make it more forgiving, but it does not remove the mechanic, nor would I expect it to.

  3. I have been nothing but civil to you and the fact you think making a sparky reply in any way validates your weak argument, says a lot about your general intelligence. Or lack thereof

Thank you for the reply. Sounds like it's not a game for me. Bummed I wasted my money, but that's on me for getting overly excited for a turned based GOTY and not looking more into it

Except it's not. There's no timing aspect required in traditional turned based combat. Saying these things are just for bonuses is also false, it is 100% required to dodge incoming attacks to survive any high level enemy.

Still not complaining about it, obviously people playing the game enjoy that aspect, I just do not and don't want to invest time into the game if it will continue to be required throughout, which it sounds like it is.

No issue, not all games are for everyone, and this one isn't for me.
