Guardian Ape was one of my fave boss fights in Sekiro. Great write up here on how its design & mehanics tie into the deeper story themes: https://kotaku.com/sekiros-smartest-boss-fight-is-against-a-giant-poop-th-1834087352/amp …

I absolutely loathed this fight. I liked the story tie-ins but the fight itself was super boring. The animations for phase 1 feel like I'm watching it in fast-forward so I've never gone in to parry it and just spend 10 minutes baiting combos I know I can get a free hit in.

I did the same for Phase 2 but have since learned to be less scared of the terror AoE and just did the parry-spear combo and it's a lot nicer. Then we get to Phase 2 of headless and even with my improved ability I still think it's a really shitty fight.

Yeah the AOE is super easy to avoid unless he has you pinned in a corner - something that happened me more than once
