3: No untagged game spoilers. If the game was recently released or not released at all yet, use the Spoiler tag (the little ⚠️ button) in the body text, and avoid typing spoilers in the title. It should also be avoided to openly talk about major story spoilers, even in old games.

As the meme implies, stop and think about how to change tactics.

Uhhh no? Especially if your playing a game that your suppose to try multiple times like hades.

I guess it depends on the game but imo the best boss fights are puzzles (god of war style) where you don’t change tactics, you keep playing until you figure out the puzzle.

Idk if I call that changing tactic, I just keep trying until I figure it out.

I mean if you want to keep running bleed against a boss immune to bleed go ahead, but I'll probably switch to an occult infusion.

I like your funny words, but I'll just continue to hit him with my Heavy Warped Axe until he falls over.

If you never consider more than one possible tactic, then by definition you're not solving a puzzle, you're just executing a fixed series of instructions.

You give Hades as an example of a game where you're doing the same thing every run, but on the contrary the game is specifically designed so that no two runs are alike. It's trying its best to force you to change tactics each run, that's the point.

Agreed, but adjusting tactics often is part of the puzzle, no? You need to solve the puzzle (find out what work = changing tactics) and then executing that solution
