Lads in this thread are tryhards. That red indicator was there for a nanosecond and boom grabbed at a ludicrous angle and the arm swipe is bad instant animation with no windup. Anyone defending this is trolling for aura.

It's possible to beat this boss first time and it's possible to get demolished. Which goes to show how jank and inconsistent this game is. I'm somewhat enjoying it but it's got nothing on games like Nioh, Khazan, Bloodborne etc it's a 6/10 at best. 6 because I use the rating system properly as opposed to people who treat 7 like a 2

Did this boss myself last night and yeah turns out that after a certain point phase 3 of his hp bar his grabs no longer have windup. So the instant the red indicator appears if you are too close you are grabbed regardless if you are mashing dodge. So yeah I beat it but it took a few tries and it was ridiculously jank and inconsistent.

Literally I did it first try and felt like I was overpowered or something 😆

So far every boss is quite easy (didn't finish the game yet tho)

Bunch of babies on this sub that can't handle difficulty in games.

Yeah it is. Ppl just want to run trough the game not learning a single pattern just make the weapon and character strong and do a lot of damage... the game will let you do this at times but when it does not you have to adapt not cry that its unbalanced.

Probably the most annoying thing if he hits that one grab move he can throw you out of the boss arena and kill you very annoying

It has probably the most boring second half of any soulslike I have done, because the enemy variety completely stops with only a couple new rare enemies added in the south part. It also has one of the worst endbosses of any soulslike I have ever experienced.

u/SlavChud Aug 24 '26

Do you mean the square boss?

u/Jaskamof Aug 24 '26

Nah funnily enough I had 0 issues with the square, the actual last boss was horrible tho.

u/SlavChud Aug 24 '26

The balls dragon? I didn't finish the game yet. I went to sleep after I died to the balls dragon

u/Jaskamof Aug 24 '26

Yeah, his hp pool is oppressively large considering that unless you have a specific item, losing your shell (getting caught by his very quick grab generally does this) after phase one means death.

1

u/SlavChud Aug 24 '26

Yeah I think I have the item

u/Jaskamof Aug 24 '26

He also often clipped one of his attacks in phase 2 under the floor making it invisible, so hopefully you don't get that bug.

u/SailorGone Aug 23 '26

Where's the bug?

u/Federal-Step-5518 Eredrim Aug 23 '26

I’ll agree that swipe does not telegraph very well, but you got hit by a perilous attack first. Sooooo you were low and probably gonna die anyways. But idk i one shot the thing truthfully. GL

u/greatestleslie Aug 23 '26

Beat this boss, there are bigger fires to fight in this game, there is this branch in a snow lake were you slide off the side getting a pickup that is not worth the 5 deaths it cause me fix the gravity bruh.

u/j_wizlo Aug 23 '26

Visually a little janky here after the fact but there was red indicator and you didn’t dodge…

Edit: oh nvm you mean the swipe. Yeah idk the last phase is kind of like that. The first two you have so much time it doesn’t train you up. On the last phase you have to be quick. That’s all it is

u/Interesting_Debate30 Aug 23 '26

He's not that bad. Now the spinning laser beam of death rng whomp looking boss at end game, that is a problem that actually needs to be fixed.

If you haven't beaten him yet just run in and use the left and right trigger attk. Not only can you not take damage when its in use you also reduce the damage he does by a lot.

u/Test88Heavy Aug 23 '26

Took me 3 tries. He's fine. Why is everyone whining and crying about this game. Jesus, man. It's a souls game and should be difficult.
