Had no clue there was an ash of war to help with parrying. How have I never heard of that?

I don’t find any aspects of the game any more difficult than previous souls-likes that I’ve played. It’s just that I want to be much lazier when I play now.

Yes! I still enjoy a challenge but if a game has many other attractive gameplay elements, I may just want to enjoy everything else

Yeah I think after playing Dark Souls games with the mindset of having to beat bosses and enemies “the right way” I forgot that there’s so many tools to use to cheese. There’s no need to put imaginary constraints on myself

Mods are a suggestion I hadn’t thought about much. Sometimes I do forget thay I’m on a PC.
