@jonahbrown5669 @Siretsk Guys, I'm pretty sure OP is talking about having fights force you to _make_ your openings by counterattacking or parrying. You know, as opposed to stepping back and waiting to swing, which seems to be where your minds are heading, and is the opposite of what you should be doing in this kind of game.
I like the tanky boss fights honestly... but Sam's definitely should be like this as a blatant exception. He's literally *the enemy player.* Your antithesis. He should fight as aggressively as you, and you should make your own openings of attack.
Imagine being a cattle farmer from Colorado, driving to and from work on the same road, everyday, and out of nowhere, you end up getting your f-150 cleaved in half by a stray sword slash from an epic sword duel between a cyborg ninja, and an average brazilian male.
The animations look sick, and I can't state enough how much I like this approach to making the fight harder. No more spamming quick attacks, this is a real fight, and it gives you all the challenge and room to learn that a great boss fight gives you.
HOLY SHIT that was the best example of this fight ive ever seen. JUST 6 MINUTES OF STRAIGHT UP CANCELLING SHIT AND CLASHING SWORDS AT HIGH SPEEDS. so cool man great gameplay.
@@егорворонов-э1ц I am brazilian, bro. We are crazy ass but not that crazy. "He's canonically faster than Raiden" Where did you get that? Because that doesn't even make sense
I honestly like it. First phase punishes you for being too defensive. Sam parry's, dodges, and attacks way more requently. You have to play more agressive and faster if you want to be able to make an opening and land hits. 2nd phases punishes you for being too aggressive. Sam's grabs are unblockable and launch fast, punishing you for running towards him sword flailing, and you have to rely on timing your dodge effectively. That's why the person in the video kept getting grabbed and countered. He also has a barely telgraphed yellow indicator counter that punishes you for button mashing. Phase 3 takes elements from both phases, requiring you to be both. I dont think this mod can be made any more better
Yeah man he whooped my ass HARD first times, it's so funny him being harder without a sword than with. But when you get used to it it's easy, even if you don't abuse dodges or jumping.
Sam was a goddamn teacher to me in this game, he was my first NoHit and taught me how to parry, i'm gonna replay again just so i can have a fight that he actually tries
@@Yordagain drive.google.com/drive/folders/1z3H1Rpw7Z99yieY1RRDsXDj_bFoBP1kg?usp=sharing uh ive never tried this before, so lmk if there are any issues also if you want to suffer like i did then, put the difficulty to very hard or revengeance with no sword upgrades -_-
@@Yordagain also btw I just checked the mod, all you have to do is just press the little drop down arrow on the harder boss file (on the right) and you will be able to download it. Im not sure why he has it in old files, but thats how I orginally got the mod.

you can abuse stab attack, i kinda wish this phase was harder, like at least sam should regen hp back to 100%
I honestly like it. First phase punishes you for being too defensive. Sam parry's, dodges, and attacks way more requently.
