I think the reason that there are so many people beating From Software games blindfolded or with weird controllers is because the combat is so intentional and timed that it’s almost more of a rhythm game anyway. I do like the feeling that every fight you get into could be your last, but there’s a point where the anxiety is just exhausting. Also, I really hate how it falls into the same problems of every other open world RPG where quest-giving NPCs might just be dead for no reason.
