Thats basically what I said... Useless. ;)
Also doesn't it piss you off when you press roll to evade an attack... and your character gets hit....then after the hit stun they Roll... and get hit again.

Uhm no... whether its fun or not isn't going to change how practical a mechanic is... and considering this is a series that people think its fun to invade other players whether they want to or not I think its best that fun isn't a factor.
I normally used the Caestus in DS3 because its lightest and the fastest but its not fastest enough to parry Great Sword Weilding Black Knights... or maybe speed isn't the issue... its the angle ir the tiny hitbox... whatever it is... its a problem.

I don't know what the timings are... all I know is even the fastest one takes too long to go active.
This was probably the case in Dark Souls 1 aswell but that game also slower Attack Start Ups so it unless you were up against a Dagger or Rapier Weilding enemy you could...

I just purchased the Madcatz one a few weeks ago...
I think making the D-Pad alil bit Larger would alleviate many of the problems with Diagonal Directions.
Of course if you've got more money than you know what to do with you can by one of those $200 Customizable Game...
To be fair all this Video Game lingo is pretty stupid.

All of it is Stupid... I mean the fact that people can't be bothered to spell them correctly just says it all.
If I were to to weigh all those factors together then parrying is 50/50... which is impractical. Particularly against the Abyss Watchers and Prince Lorian & Sulyvan.
My next Boss is The Dragon Slayer Armor.

That being said, you are overlooking the disadvantages of trying to Parry. Namely the fact that the game doesn't tell what is parryable and what isn't so you have to use trial & error to figure that out... and there's still the problem of The Parrying Glitch where you suffer all the consequences...
As for Gundyr... he's om of the only Bosses where parrying is constistent... even with a medium shield I can get clean non trading successful parries on him... I'm still on the process of doing this for the rest of the Bosses in the game.

It is an honour to Continue the Tradition... I can only hope that I live to the Title and do right by this curse.
@Sotherius
I am curious as to what exactly you think is wrong wuth Irithal Dungeon.
As for the Enemy designs... I don't think they're bland at all you get a crapton of...

Lets just say I have Faith in you. ;)
I honestly don't know whst you sound like but if its atleast half as good as you type then thats good enough to get by among other english speakers.
Hell... you could probably have casual discussions with them... unless if you have a weird...
