    Delayed attacks as a form of increasing difficult are just extremely unfun. Yeah, you made the boss harder, you also made it extremely frustrating, congratz.

      In Elden Ring you can often attack during the windup and then dodge. Creating a posture break during those delays can be quite a fun experience.

      Plus you can do things like jumping attacks to dodge and duck a lot more of those spinning combos than you’d expect.

      The ascetic with the hoops at the very start whiffs most of his chained attacks without you even having to dodge once you figure it out.

      FromSoft games are fun to learn, and that frustration is often the appeal as the tricks are discovered.
