I thought that said "paying" and I agreed.
Now that I see it says parrying, I do not.
Perhaps the author just sucks and should stop playing the kind of games that tend to have parrying. What guy in Clair Obscur are you stuck on, bruh?
You can trivialize the parrying in Clair Obscur with the difficulty levels (and automate the offensive timing of it altogether).
But it sucks that you can't disable it and have to stare at QTE prompts over the beautiful combat animation.
***** attacks at light speed.
I love (and plat) both sekiro and nine sols, so I'm all for parrying. But some enemies really have bad telegraphs in clair obscur.
