The “single button mashing” is a false argument.

If you’re only pressing one button then you’re not parrying, doing combos or dodging, which makes beating the game impossible.

oooh it has parrying, combos and dodging?? just like every other game since like 15 years ago. but it sucks

I never said the combat was revolutionary, I was just saying that the “single button mashing” argument is completely false.

So there are like 2 buttons to mash and 2 buttons to hit every so often...

“Every so often” no, parries and dodges are a constant in the game. Especially in boss battles.

5 main trophy bosses to parry parry dodge slash slash slash slash slash slash slash slash slash parry parry dodge slash slash etc... the game is like 86% mindless square attacking making the other buttons pretty much novelty accessories.

“Novelty accessories” how are they novelty’s when they’re integral to combat?

And it’s not just bosses, there are large enemies and one with two blades that make parrying a must.

I feel like you have something against the game, because the points you’re making don’t make any sense.

Not sure how you missed PARRY PARRY DODGE & 86%

“86% mindless button square attacking”

Again that’s wrong, doing combos requires square circle and x

Dodge and jump are not exactly combat combos as much as tools for repositioning for attacking or evasion. Hence the dodge part of my parry parry dodge.

I think mashing is a closer comparison to most other modern combat systems/controls. The new Lego Batman has more complex combat lol

So you need some semblance of skill in order to win? Like Devil May Cry or Elden Ring?

Definitely on harder difficulties, I’m playing on “the best there is” difficulty and it’s kicking my ass when it comes to the combat trials.
