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

I'm gonna write a bigger article, but first some final thoughts here, where I should first give a few superlatives. Favorite fight: Owl(father) - intense, gorgeous, fluid, and beating him was my biggest "see the matrix moment" where I was in total control. Just perfect.

Least Favorite: Demon of Hatred, which I argue outright doesn't count. It's not that iT's A sOuLsBoUrnE boss, it's that it's a BAD soulsbourne boss. Rare hitbox problems, and chaos created by the uneven environ. The rare Fromsoft fight I don't call cruel, but "bad design" on.

Coolest achievement: Beating double apes on first try! Lamest personal moment: Cheesing Jinsuke Saze Scariest moment: SNAKE / Guardian part 2 Funniest moment: THAT MONKEY'S GOT A SWORD

Lastly, it's sort of hard to sum up my thoughts on all this, largely because this is my least accessible / most pedantic twitter thread I've ever written. I've lost like 600 followers and so many of you hopefully muted this. It must have been boring!

After all, so rarely was I digesting or spitting out things to help someone unfamiliar make sense of it or making jokes. So often it was "how do I get spacing with this dude's move? How do I block x?" etc., it was expressing frustration, or talking through my own myopic process.

So why did I keep doing it? Easy... So I didn't have to go through it alone. And you were all there, helping me through it. So this is dedicated to all of you. Know it meant so much in a game that has easily become one of my favorites of all time. You're all the best <3

When a FromSoft boss is frustrating, it's like the frustration digs a pit in you; the more frustration the deeper the pit. And when you finally beat the boss, the dam breaks and that pit floods with satisfaction; the deeper the pit the more satisfaction.
