This game gets me; so hard at times trying to complete to finish hopefully I'll be able to come out victorious

The demo was fun but it will take me some time to get used to the parry and dodge timing. But I’m not going to constantly keep playing the demo. I’m looking forward to playing the full game one day and I’ll get my grind on then.

I felt that way about the timing until I learned there's a bug in the game that causes input delay if the HDCP setting on your PS5 is on. Which it is by default. After I turned it off, the timing on the dodge and parry felt much better. Hopefully this is fixed in time for the full release.

Oh that’s something I didn’t know. I’ll turn it off and give it another try. Thanks for the info! Like you said, hopefully they’ll have it patched soon.

Wonder if it's for the same reason guys used to spend so much time playing Dead or Alive

There’s no difficulty code to crack.

Dark Souls is the game it is and difficulty it wants to be. Stellar is the game it is and the difficulty it wants to be with options.

It’s like saying Devil May Cry cracked the Ninja Gaiden difficulty code.

"The Gamer almost cracks the good Journalism code"

I don’t know, it definitely has souls elements but I don’t even know as I’d call it a souls like. It’s challenging occasionally but nowhere near souls level. I think some of the souls stuff has become almost the standard at this point. I don’t think having campsites and respawning enemies is enough to call something a souls like. Personally.
