Patient smash is automatically triggering even when I hold the button down. Anyone experienced this? Can’t seem to find other people talking about it but holding the button down it just does the regular level 1. Not sure what’s causing this

I've gotten to the halfway point so far into the bossfight. I already hate this bossfight with all my heart. It's not even structured like a normal bossfight, just a miniboss instead. It makes it all the worse considering the annoying moveset the boss has, while the moves themselves are underwhelming asf, they made incredibly fast and close upon on another. But the final straw was when i just came to the second phase and it pulled out its clone. I cannot emphasize the hatred i feel for bosses that do this, its the worst type of boss there is, the clone is extremely tanky for a clone. It doesn't deserve even the title of miniboss, it's just a cheap attempt at drawing out the game. The boss feels like some horrible attempt at wasting your time. The walker of illusion is somehow even worse than the green monster which i hate solely for the reason it gives you decay. What i like about a boss is the 1v1 setting where you each trade blows, not the bossfights where the knockoff rails me from behind while the real boss sits in the cuck chair.

I think I’m starting to get what the story is now, especially since the first thing you see in the area is a carcass killing a puppet. I feel like a giant ass after killing that kid though.

So, I've been playing it for about 50 hours or so, and I'm stuck at the Clown boss at Rose Street. I don't think I'm going to be able to go over this fight.

I'm slow. I'm legit slow, I have bad reaction times and poor coordination, I normally don't play these sort of games. I've played Dark Souls and Elden Ring, but as mage builds and bonk builds, but mostly I play turn based games. I can't do well on things that require precision.

It's been a very slow going. And I've been at the Clown for the past 10 hours, can only play like an hour or two a day at most, so it's all very slow.

I'm not sure how I managed to get this far, but I can't perfect guard unless by accident and I can't seem to dodge either. I just hold the block button and occasionally hit things with the Pipe wrench for guard reduction.

I've shelved both Hollow Knights, WoLong and BLackmyth this year for requiring too much precision and reaction, is Lies of P more of the same?

I really like the art, music and story of the game so far, it's legit interesting, but often feels like these types of games are designed for specific folks with tuned abilities.
