JUST LEARN TO PARRY
>>340266045
Honestly, I didn't feel like any Dasdingos boss was much harder than the others. Or hard in general.
Monsoon is a bitch to do a no damage run on, because of the fucking smoke grenades.
this is where I learned the game had health potions
More like
>artificial difficulty
>game doesn't explain parrying properly
>it's a core fight mechanic
>>340266538
the game did a really shitty job at that, I agree. but bladewolf pretty much forces you to learn earlier in the game, so I don't imagine anyone had a problem with parrying this far into the game
>>340266045
I hated this fight so fucking much
Not only was Monsoon an asshole, but Raiden got dizzy from a fucking tap on the shoulder from him, not to mention when he goes fucking invincible until you parry him
>>340266538
>>340266695
Just use EMP grenades.
>>340266695
>fucking invincible until you parry him
Did you not use emp grenades?
>>340266538
>game doesn't explain parrying properly
But it does.
What it doesn't explain is dodging, which is actually an optional unlockable move, inlike parrying, which is a part of your starting moveset. But some attacks cannot be parried, which makes dodge a core mechanic indeed.
>>340266045
FUCK I REALLY WISH THIS GAME HAD A BOSS RUSH MODE
>>340266226
He has the most parries and the hardest parries in the game.
>>340266782
This, it literally drops em grenades for you during the fight.
Be better
These guys are a pretty good filter for most shitters.
>>340266849
>But it does.
Not it fucking doesn't. The explanation is poor and doesn't cover it properly.
>What it doesn't explain is dodging, which is actually an optional unlockable move,
You're wrong. Offensive defense even has the button prompt explanation when you buy it. Parrying has no such thing.
>which makes dodge a core mechanic indeed.
You can dodge manually using jumps and ninja run. It's easily possible to do playthroughs without the dodge.
>>340266898
>hurr be better
I beat Monsoon on the first try because I learned what parrying was before even playing the game. A huge number of people who did blind playthroughs had trouble grasping the parrying mechanic.
This is not about whether Monsoon is hard or not (he's not), it's about how convoluted the parrying explanation is.
DOESITHURT?/spoiler]
>>340267119
I still don't even completely understand it myself.
I know I'm supposed to hold the control stick and square when they're about to attack (The red flash indicates) but even then sometimes he just does a light attack
I really wish they made it a different fucking button TBQH
>>340267119
>flick the stick at someone as they attack you
Holy shit that was hard. But go ahead and defend retardation and inability to read
>>340267040
you can breeze through the whole game with three phantoms though
>>340267261
>But go ahead and defend retardation and inability to read
Screenshot me where this is explained in the game.
>>340267256
You just spam attack+point towards direction the enemy making the attack is coming from.
>>340267119
been a long time since I have played it, I don't really like hack and slashes, only bought it because it is metal gear, But if my memory serves me right it explains the parry and all the moves in the non dlc VR, which was the first thing that I went to.
I beat monsoon on hard pretty easy

He spent more time on Sundowner than he did on Monsoon.
Let that sink in.
>>340267382
haaaa first boss.
truly a sign of things to come.
I was not ready for that game when I played it, probably the hardest game I have played
>>340267517
>>340267425
>But if my memory serves me right it explains the parry and all the moves in the non dlc VR
Go and look at that one, and try to tell me it explains the move properly to someone who never played the game. Come on, go see how wrong you are.
>>340267287
With the result of bosses having up to 3X more HP and deal a lot more damage.
>>340267636
I didn't notice much of a difference, whenever I summoned even one phantom all bosses were ridiculously easy.
>>340267592
>I've got the tutorial message wrong
>this must mean the game doesn't explain this at all!!!
>>340267287
>elder wyrm readies spore
>>340267636
3x more HP and more damage really doesn't make up for the fact the boss attention is now split up between four players lmao
you're also doing four times the damage to make up for it, and 1/4th of the damage being directed to you
>>340267592
>Come on, go see how wrong you are.
idk I haven't played the game for over 3 years and I am not getting my 360 just to find out.
as I said I am not into hack and slashes, If I managed to get the parry down the VR must have explained it well enough for me.
I remember monsoon having a rhythm to his attacks and managing to parry him like that.
I didn't spam the attack neither a correct timed press.
Is it just me or does monsoon have a bowler hat built into his head
>>340268047
It's just you.
>>340266045
I don't understand how people don't learn how to block in Rising. What held me back the most was blocking too much because of how simple it was.
It ended up teaching me to wait for the right frames to block so it'd be a proper parry and break enemies defenses. Then that lead to watching when it was best to use the dodge move so not only was I not taking damage and avoiding unblockable attacks, I was also getting attacks in at the same time.
Rising was top tier casual filter.
Who the fuck allowed this?
Reminder: This guy made DSP give up.

>>340267636
>bosses are made of paper when you fight them solo
>summon a phantom, now they're made of two sheets of paper
The biggest challenge with some DaS3 bosses is keeping the camera on them, or not wasting too much stamina running to where they teleport. Add even one phantom to that, and that's gone.
>>340266649
I simply ran during the fight
>>340266193

is he easier on Sigma? Because I don't recall having too much of a problem with him and I doubt I was playing all that well
>>340269583
Zone's juri flash
>>340269653
the problem with him is that everything he does can be countered but you dont get the counter until the next level.
>>340269627
So they're not even another sheet of paper, more like a clipping.

What's that? You can't beat the first boss in the game? Maybe you should grind your Z-Saber out on those turret towers for a couple of minutes, at least until you get the charge attack. Oh yeah, don't forget that you have a time limit.
Aztec Falcon is a true casual filter.
>>340270819
>got stuck on him for a day
>forgot about the game afterwards for some reason
>came back about a month later and beat him first try
i still haven't done any more of the game honestly
i just beat that first mission, explored the base some more and stopped for some reason
i don't hate the game just something didn't really sit right with it i found
probably because keyboard controls
You can do it, right?
>>340269128
The final boss can't be casual filter, bro.
WAAAOUOW

>>340266045

Fuck off plebs .
This is the OG casual filter.
>>340271258
>probably because keyboard controls
Get the Megaman Zero collection for the DS, or if you're gonna emulate then get a controller for that. 360 is a good choice, I personally love using my iBuffalo SNES controller for emulating SNES/GBA games though. MMZ games require the more precise and easier to manage platforming controls that come with a controller.
>>340271449
Is this a joke? When I saw the inputs, I thought it would something like the Guile ultra with kicks or the Vega one but it's just raging demon.
>>340271691
i guessed that much, even navigating the stage was a massive pain with such shit controls
i do have a PS3 controller around, is it still a chore to get that connected to a PC or are there programs that allow it no problem now?
>>340270340
If you're talking casual filters Barroth comes way earlier to weed out the scrubs.
Those that get past him usually make it to HR, where there's a 2nd wall, after that it's those that make it to GR.

I Can't believe they brought her back in razors edge through the trials.Turned the game off as soon as I heard the techno start
Blade Wilf is the actual casual filter, tho.
I honestly thought parrying was pretty hard in this game. Often I did it wrong and the parry failed. The camera didn't help, as often it swung around wildly. Mind you I played on Hard, where the timing is a lot stricter. I definitely wouldn't say it's easy.
>>340266457
I beat the game not knowing this until second playthrough at friends house.

How do you even get so far into the game without learning how to block?

Literally the easiest boss.
The only annoying thing is how long the fight can take if he constantly summons matchman bandits with another bandit, especially cutthroats.

>>340273783I didn't learn how to block until I died a bunch of times to the Sam bossfight

Choo choo
Only if you're playing Grolla though as Spiritia makes this fight easy.
>>340267040
This. I died more than 50 times to these fuckers in my first playthrough. Just because i didn't know how to backstab them.
>>340267751
It's a fucking optional boss.
You can literally just walk the long way around it if it gives you trouble
>>340266045
I learned that you can parry on this boss.
>>340275110
At least the flesh can heal itself, stun you with a very high chance, bleed you with a very high chance and blight you with a very high chance regardless of how well you play.
If you can snipe the matchman on turn one and then clear the bandits from then on it's piss easy.
Let's not forget that the canon can actually misfire and do nothing, and was guaranteed to happen on the second shot until it was patched out and replaced with a chance system (35% chance on apprentice 30% chance on veteran and 25% chance on champion)

>>340266649
Real talk, people talk about that fight against blade wolf like it's the tough nut / weenie seperator casual filter battle, but it's like, I played the game, and for half of the game you can get by just doing a mix of running in and out and mashing the attack button, parries are not just awkward to do but also entirely impractical, riiight until the robo dog thing comes along, kicks your ass, and then it's like the game is saying "oh you can't even parry yet what a faggot are you".
And afterwards the game kinda plays itself because whenever you don't know what to do you just wait until an attack comes your way and parry it.
I feel this game has a really shitty difficulty curve and does a really bad job of explaining it's mechanics. The dodge move that you can unlock, which also does a counterattack, I legitimately NEVER knew about that until after finishing the game. And then people act like yooo you've gotta know about that but when I learned the parry thing I would just kill anything anyway?
There's games like DMC where every move feels sensible and you've got real incentive to unlock and learn how to do everything. Even though DMC is kinda cheating with it's style system which more or less forces you to mix up your attack patterns. But Metal Gear Rising, it never gave me incentive to really learn all the shit I could be doing, and make no mistake, that is NOT my fault.
This mission always gave me heaps of trouble:

MGR was one of the most casual easymode games I've ever played, I didn't even realize I had a healing/revive item until the second last level.
>>340275197
anon, that was just "don't stand in the fire/hit enemy's weak spot for massive damage": the mission.

It literally covers partying in the first 5 minutes of the games tutorial. Not our fault the bottom half of your screen was covered by your mountain of fat tubbie.

How on earth did he get this far? Also, is he playing on the easiest difficulty?
>>340273783
To be fair the game is easy as shit and you don't need to block for 99% of it.
That entire game was a cakewalk.Even on revengance difficulty
>>340278316
Can't get past mission 1 in that difficulty.

>>340266045
I never did get this games difficulty until I finally came across armstrong. Other than him the first metal gear gave me more trouble than anything else in the game. Sundowner was hilariously easy due to my play style.
Playing on the second hardest available difficulty at the start to. Being really good at offensive defense but sucking with blade mode probably was the biggest reason for this.
>>340266045
There's nothing in mgr that is a casual filter. The only casual here is you for thinking so.
>>340275262
Most people don't know that though, this is a casual filter thread not a difficult bosses thread. The boss is right next to the save crystal so most will naturally just walk forward
>>340281204
I was shit at parrying and even then I could easily beat Monsoon. Sundowner made me get gud at parrying but he was still not that bad, took me 3 tries or so.
Armstrong though? fuck that guy. My stick was also a bit fucked so at that moment when you're supposed to cut the rocks in half I just had to get lucky.

>>340282338
If you are unprepared and don't understand the game mechanics yet he will boost his evasion to maximum and you can hardly ever hit him.
>>340282338
Because he is the definition of casual filter. He's not so difficult for the prepared player, but for the first-timer the fight is devastating. He also jumps on you in the middle of the tunnel and nothing warns you about the fight except some cryptic message about candelabrum.
>>340282338
Just a massive leap in boss difficulty. He starts out the fight with a massive speed boost that he recasts if you try to get it down all the way, and SMT heavily punishes missed attacks.
Only reliable way to beat him is to have speed buffs of your own and/or a demon that is null-Zan.
>>340267040

>>340282929

>>340273656
revengeance is actually easier than very hard due to the retarded bonus damage you get on perfect parries in it. you can wreck the bosses doing it, and it's pretty fucking easy.

I learned how to block during the Armstrong fight after dying around four times.
