Sekiro was lightning in a bottle, I can't think of any games released after it that come close to how great the gameplay was in it.
i absolutely love the 'sekiro-mode' deflecting hardtear introduced in elden ring's DLC and i hope they continue to emphasize that gameplay element
Ghost of Tsushima
I'm bad at parrying bit would like to become a bit better at it too improve as a gamer. However, there's a resource issue that I often see in games (especially f/tps, not talking about fighting games): both dodge and parry usually cost something like stamina consumption. The only way to regain stamina while defending is actually to avoid hits by good placement but without dodging / dashing. It's slower, more difficult but really satisfying because you have enough stamina to deal great damage at any time. It is usually my way of handling combats.
I thought that said "paying" and I agreed.
Now that I see it says parrying, I do not.
Perhaps the author just sucks and should stop playing the kind of games that tend to have parrying. What guy in Clair Obscur are you stuck on, bruh?
***** attacks at light speed.
I love (and plat) both sekiro and nine sols, so I'm all for parrying. But some enemies really have bad telegraphs in clair obscur.

Third Strike parry is peak gaming. I also enjoy Street Fighter 6 parry. However, my brain feels real good landing them in Third Strike
this made me realize I don't give a fuck about video games anymore
I mostly agree. It's not fun.
Sounds like someone is a bit salty they can't immediately get the timing right in Expedition 33 and it's reminding them of all the other times they've sucked. Get good, loser.
To be fair, input delay and dropped inputs are a huge problem with kB+m, at least on the game pass version
LOL, get good.
