Skill issue....I suppose
I'm not an avid Souls-like player. The closest to something like that for me was Lies of P. I'm trying to learn the game and understand how to get better but I am finding it really difficult. I'm frankly lost, I don't know what the items are, what they do and I've not come across parrying, yet they seem to be really important.
Im currently at the point where I face wither the cleric beast or Father Gascoigne and I'm reconsidering restarting the game, in hopes that I pick up these things. Would you recommend that, and is there something that you would advise me to do as a first-time player?
Im genuinely trying my best but I seem to die not only to bosses but even random enemies.
