    What the frick, are you seriously getting filtered by directional parries? That's absolutely pathetic; you should seriously consider dropping video games as a whole.

      I beat Mistral on my first try. I can parry/block but the Monsoon fight lasts for ages during which my HP gets chipped down from missing the blocks every now and then. I don't know what that anon is talking about with the tanks dropping health, as far as I know they just drop BP.

        unless you know to parry the thrown attack she's basically impossible because she input reads your every parry and back steps the riposte which is the only way you damage her

    How are you fricking up so much? I assume you're playing on hard (since very hard shouldn't be unlocked for you yet). The fights isn't even difficult if you know how to parry properly and just wait for an opportunity to hit back during the stun phase.

    Why do MGR's parries filter so many people?

    • 2 years ago
      Anonymous

      Because you have to press a button + a direction on your joystick.

      Movie games only require you to press a button so you add one directional element and people's brain melt.

              We live in a time where a walking simulator starring a cat is the second coming of jesus. I don't think guessing many players are not used to "complex" game mechanics is so far from reality.

      because you can get pretty far without ever needing it, so you don't even know what you're missing
      imagine playing something like ninja gaiden without knowing how to block, you would immediately be able to tell that you're missing something crucial

        You have a tutorial mission teaching you how to parry, they even mention it is crucial to succeed in combat.

        If players dont use it they are the only ones to blame.

          do you mean the VR missions? you don't need to do those
          the fact that this game can be almost completed without knowing any of the key mechanics is a fault of the devs. if you have key mechanics like that not knowing them should filter a blind player at mission 1

          it should be as in MGS. you never need to touch the VR missions there but if you ignore all the key mechanics you won't get far

      Beats me. Worst part is when morons complain it should be a single button press, as if that wouldn't completely trivialize the game, but I suppose that's what they want so they don't actually have to put any effort in.

      Could be the explanation with the "direction of enemy attack" not being intuitive to people.
      If the enemy attacks from the front, then the 'direction' of the enemy attack goes through Raiden, so people could be pushing the opposite direction, like how blocking in fighting games works where attacks from the right are blocked by holding left.
      The most foolproof way to word it would have been to tell people to tilt the stick 'at the attacking enemy' and press the attack button at the same time.
      Also calling it parrying is misleading when parry implies 'deflect and counterattack' which only happens with good timing, otherwise it's just a guard.

      • 2 years ago

        it wasn't intuitive for me either but one quick google search to make sure i understand it correctly fixed that. still the player's fault for just dismissing the mechanic entirely

        Good post.
        MGR is also a game where you can ignore the mechanic until you reach Jetstream Sam or even Armstrong. The core combat fundamentals and the iframe slash are both strong enough for that.

          Well, you can definitely ignore them, but that would lead to guys like OP taking 20 tries to beat Monsoon lol

      Yes, why don't you? It's as simple as pushing your joystick toward the direction the enemy is coming from.

    I almost got filtered by Sundowner. I couldn't figure out how to change the direction of the slashes vertically to cut the shield. I did it by just cutting the shield when it was horizontal and running while spamming fast attacks.

    You're parrying wrong. Just spam flick the stick in his direction. You don't precise parry in this game. Monsoon is basically your wake up call that parrying is a spamfest in this game.
