I think that I fought that boss too long because I LITERALLY CAN'T BEAT THIS STUPID FUCKING LONE SHADOW RIGHT NOW WHAT IS WRONG WITH ME.

Usually I need to take breaks on some manner of positivity- but I feel completely insane.

There is such an absurd lack of any kind of predictability to this fight. Usually dying in FromSoft, I know what I did wrong in a given situation, but here is so weird. And it's not that that his move set-set is unpredictable, it's the way it warps your sense of spacing.

I think im in the exact right position to dodge / block / hit him? 3 out of 4 times I am. The other IM NOT for some god forsaken chaotic reason, and when those errors result in insta-death, it's like FUCK ME.

I really really really really really really really really really really really really really really really really really really really really really really really really really really really really really really really really really really really really fucking hate this fight.

I've never given up on a FromSoft boss before. Never. But this makes me feel insane. I'm legitimately WORSE at him after 3 fucking days. And no, it's not just a "fell into a rut" thing. It's because this isn't a muscle memory fight. It's too chaotic. U need skittish reaction time

Okay, making a real go on OWL (Father) now - What do I do with that tight lunging sword sweep!??!? It's like jumping feels wrong, but I can't dodge the side form it either??? Trying to get into the rhythm of this and barely got my feet yet.

I BEAT OWL(FATHER) II BEAT HIM I BEAT AHEIM I BEAT HIMMMMM Oh my god that was one of my favorite fights of all time. I had such balance/control and he was barely getting it hits first round- god I'm so happy that last part was crazy, it got all the way down to last bit of life

Ohhhhhkay. I'm sorta itching to try boss... But I have now beat all headless, I also just gotta farm some fulminated mercury to get three more upgrade items to get all of them???? Anyone know a good place to farm???

Wait I *can't* get all the upgrades in one game cycle/?????

FINAL BOSS TIME!!! It is amazing how weak Genichiro is now, even with his stoopid sword. Isshin is... Seeming not horrible so far? Haven't got to deathblow yet but I feel steady.... But right now those three dots give... pause.

HOW DID HE PULL A SPEAR OUT OF HIS ASS WHO GAVE HIM THAT GUN okay I'm taking a break.
Show this thread -
I've come back from break! Okay Genichiro is now absolutely handing me ass and it's like I've completely forgotten how to play this gameand I can't parry fuck all!?!? In this game you're either 1) locked in and struggling, 2) seeing the lines of matrix code, or 3) helpless baby

All I wanted to do was get to phase 2 consistently to be able to figure out how to fight him. Here's what that's looked like. Die against Genchiro 23 times cause I forgot how to play this game. Die first round Isshin or Genichiro still next 15 times. I need to go kill weaklings

Y'ALL WHAT THE FUCK IS HAPPENING, I LITERALLY CAN'T GET PAST GENCHIRO AND HE'S A LITTLE FUCKING SHIT, I'VE NEVER HAD SOMETHIN SO WEIRD HAPPEN, I FEEL CRAZY, BUT I CANT QUIT, I HAVE TO BEAT HIM TO PROVE IM JUST BEING SKITTISH AND THIS IS ALL IN MY HEAD, BUT ITS GETTING WORSE
Show this thread -
Okay. I got to Isshin again. ALMOST got to phase 2, just got greedy and pushed right the end. But at least I proved I wasn't crazy... well... not crazy in this specific way. Time for a reset. Quitting for now. <3

Update on Final Boss: I can perfect my way past Genichiro 80% of the time. With Isshin I'm getting to second stage, oh, 60% of the times from there. I don't like that I have to use like 5 heals, but I'm getting better. When I get to that 2nd stage, MAN, hard to figure it out...
Show this thread -
When the fuck do I heal against this dude in this round??? Nothing makes sense. You go from a round where he gives you ALL THE SPACE IN THE WORLD to a round with never.

So fun wrinkle: so MUCH of this is the rapid timing between block and striking - I've gotten into this weird mistake where sometimes I'm Ichimonji -ing w/ my combat arts hit just because the time I'm trying to strike after i block thinks I'm hitting both at once. It SUX

God this fight is so mentally demanding. That's the whole thing, right? I *finally* figure out the rhythm of phase 2 / get in a grove with all his swoopy nonsense but suddenly I'm an idiot against Genichiro again / Isshin's 1st phase keeps fucking my patience- haven't got back :[
Show this thread -
Oh no, that thing where your hands hurt and you're going cross-eyed and tired but you're afraid if you quit you'll lose your rhythm and never do as well as you're doing right now> so you'll never beat the boss and this entire thread will be in vain and everyone will be sad at you
Show this thread -
Ugh I gotta stop. Truth be told I *really* wanted to fucking beat this so I could get shit done this week. I keep hearing "if you can just get to stage 3" but getting to stage 3 is so damn hard. I'm much better at phase 2 now it's just so hard to string it ALL together w/ 4phase

I got a lot of work done, but literally all I can think about is this stupid fucking fight. Came back. I'm now getting so close I can taste it, BUT ITS SEVERELY MESSING WITH MY GENICHIRO AND PHASE 1 STUFF. Gotta stay steady... gotta... stay... steady...

I was so close to getting him I screamed, I'm still shaking...
