@meowmaritus In this game the go to strat is using mimic tear and then stunlocking to death. And that makes me feel like my win wasn't earned if I never learned the bosses moveset and did the dark souls "dance" with them
@meowmaritus I think it's just a consequence of giving you so many options. Where past games have been about slower methodical combat this one seems to focus on reflex and iframes much more. I wonder if the statues are a quick fix used to alleviate some frustration
