Wuchang: Fallen Feathers

If I'm understanding this right, the game takes place in Shu and has a very similar story to Wo Long: Fallen Dynasty, with a mysterious force turning people into monsters. Not to mention an extremely similar name... and it ISN'T a sequel? The hell.

I liked Wo Long a lot (it makes parrying incredibly fun/rewarding). Didn't get too far in Black Myth Wukong, wasn't into it enough to really invest the time needed to git gud. I think I got to the first major boss, the fight in a lake or something to that effect. May have been the end of chapter 1.

If this is good, and a bit easier than Black Myth, I might give it a go, especially if I drop DK Bananza from the schedule.

I want to play more but feel like my patience for navigating tiny walkways with dead ends, ladders, wrapping this way and that is pretty low.

Specifically I was just passed Shu temple, killed the guy at the top relatively easy (one charged R2 with spear staggered him immediately and I could almost chain it), made my way beneath the temple into the cave area, but felt like I missed a lot so teleported back to do the village area outside the other exit.

But that place just tries my patience. May give another weapon a shot. Not loving the spear. Was trying to work on using the L2 counter move but can’t quite work it out.

Getting my ass handed to me. I keep pressing LB to parry/block and end up getting cut in half. Lol
