@@onestraight I've seen gameplay of other people doing MUCH worse than this and still landing S+, though, that could possibly be because the difficulty was lower. Or maybe the game just is easier due to it, according to Game Xplain, being more focused on story.
Ranking is not affected by dmg taken, only by style, so getting s+become ok after u got good set up, would be cool if they add ss+ with dmg taken counted!
Shame we can't see more good gameplay from anywhere else -- I mean, do the people who put videos of this on RUclips even TRY to be friggin' badasses like this?? This is just straight-up ART!

Incredible so this what the game looks like played when combat is used to its fullest. I high doubt someone employed at gamespot is playing at this level and if they are then they deserve the title of game journalists.
If you can get S+ by getting hit and using items, what do you get for no damage, no items then? SSS rank? If there is no achievement for no items, at the very least, that's a missed opportunity.
Ranking is not affected by dmg taken sadly, it will be good if it was cause making s+ become too easy when u have a good setup, well u can challenge yourself and restart when u don't like getting hit to mutch!
