>>225546Nah. It's pretty piece of shit. Nothing about combat is rewarding or good. It's quite literally a R1 L1 spam and your posture is quite literally irrelevant.
Or rather you get rewarded too much by spamming R1, not only you interrupt their attacks and cancel their animations, you also deflect attacks with R1 so incase you spam R1 too much and forget to deflect, the game will deflect for you anyway. All bosses have usually only 1 to 3 abilities to get out of your R1 spam and that's red kanji, after that one attack you are back to R1 spamming.
And yeah your posture literally never matters. Even if it breaks mid combo, you can instantly roll out of it and not get hit.
The stagger points for most bosses are all stupid and clearly not tested enough. Like ape guardian where you can literally stagger him to death with simple R1 every 3 attacks and then alternating between 2 and 3 whenever he starts his animation to stagger him again, INFINITELY.
