Gaming Metaphor Refantazio

[Gehrman]

This is my problem with the end game, with some of those bosses this is really the only viable tactic, just max out Heismay's royal and get him to dodge attacks, because if they get 4-5 attacks in a row, you're dead.

I decided to change the difficulty to easy with the final boss. I couldn´t be bothered to the prequisite grinding or follow specfic guides. After my first attempt on normal, i just said, feck it. in games like this the pace is slow pr. default and I dont quite feel its like getting stuck on a fromsoftware boss. In these games, a boss fight might take 15 minutes and sometimes more before you have them down to 15% health and then they have some mega attack that means game over. In fromsoftware games, the battle is over usually over in max a few minutes, but it means you get to experiment very quickly to try and find the right tactic or cheese. In Metaphor if you havnt maxed out your social bonds you can´t unlock some of the necessary archetypes for the end game and there is nothing you can do about apart from going back to a save way back.

I finished the game a few weeks back, my favourite game of 2024 alongside FF7. I think the only thing I disliked was the stint right at the end of the game which went on a bit too long and wished the credits would just role. I am a little torn as to whether I prefer it to P5R though.
