I am losing patience and not having fun anymore with this game.
I am now bored as I dominate the entire area I can roam (everything until father gascoigne). Trolls are systematically eviscerated. No enemy really poses major trouble, except the werewolves, and even those I can take care of fairly easily. Well, except that giant pig that I always engage from behind, but seems too strong for frontal assault for now. I enjoy fighting those tall, skinny, spear-carrying weirdoes.
But I. cannot. kill. this motherfucker. I can't. I think at this point it's trauma, because I used to be able to get to beast form pretty easily (back when I didn't realize he had two 'human' forms, but now I have problem getting past the second form (I can not figure out for the life of me the timing for parrying his longaxe attacks. I just try to parry pathetically, and get axed in the face). Sometimes I get the parry but i got axed anyway, so I can't even get the attack in. Often I'll get parries, and the visceral attack won't connect. Either I am too far, or by the time i get close and release the left stick it's too late. I got to the beast form a couple of times, got two visceral attacks in, but at my level/strenght, it gets him to a sliver of health away from dying, but then I die (and only my wife's look of disapproval prevented me from throwing the ps4 out of the window)
I went from a stockpile of tons of bullets and health vials, to 0 vials, 0 bullets (and while in theory i could beat father G without vials, doing it without bullets sounds like madness), and 0 echoes. And it's getting more pathetic as I try to rush and engage it with two vials and 5 bullets obtained from blood sacrifice, b/c I can't be bothered with roaming the stupid fucking city for a few bullets (I know 4 of them can easily be obtained from the wheelchair dude)
Given the gun does pathetic damage and is essentially the parry, I really wish they'd replenish the bullets when you resurrect.
I think I'll just stop. This stopped being interesting to me hours ago.
None of what I can read on this thread or online seems to help. The beast seems somewhat ok to parry, but is very unforgiving for mistakes. I run into motherfucking tombstones all the time.
Back to hotline miami 2 in hard mode, which somehow frustrates me much less. I'd do the boat level fifty times in a row rather than face that fucking asshole.
