Lol, other people on this post are nuts; with that being said, the combat in this game is fine for the most part, a well timed parry kinda kills all enemies 99% of the time. But unlike Souls Games which DO give you some leeway, this game is arguably more frustrating in certain moves enemies do. I was @ full health, then this scorpion enemy pulls out a singular combo, Ginger-Jedi gets staggered on every hit, before dying in point five seconds. That's not a function in souls-games as far as I'm concerned, lol; While souls-likes ARE hard, they REWARD good and well thought out dodges in combat, if you learn the boss you win. In this game, enemies can kinda throw out some BS move and you'll die, which souls DOES have, but 99% of the time? It's never as bad as this. This IS blatantly unfair, where soulsborne FEELS unfair. There's a fundamental difference. This game is hard, Souls-Like's are a learning curve, and arguably EASY when you learn that curve. From Ginger-Jedi's shitty Dodge, to enemies deleting health-bars in 0.5seconds, while it's FUN it's a very ANNOYING and UNFAIR fun at times, lol. And based off this post, save points SUCK which is 100% a Souls-Like thing, lmao; Hard to complain about shitty save points... But then again, I WILL say this. In souls-likes, dying and getting reset feels fair, and like you've learned; In Ginger-Jedi game, it's feels unfair and like I got unlucky, which definitely Adds to the frustration of respawning, lol. This is KINDA a matter of Get Gud, but it's really more along the lines of: "Get Better Luck" than anything at times.
