I play a lot of games with parry mechanics, and E33 was much stricter than most. It even made it impossible for me to play the game over a TV network link because the tiny delay made parries unreliable.
Comment on What is a game you can’t understand why its so popular ?

I love turn based RPGs, but I couldn’t get behind expedition 33 at all. I’m sure I just suck at the game, but dodging/blocking never worked. Made it impossible to care about the story cause I was so frustrated. Again I’m sure its just cause I suck, but I never got mad at yakuza like a dragon for its blocking/dodging mechanics.

I found the timing really difficult too, so I found a mod that slightly increases the dodge/parry window (something like 0.2s to 0.3s for parries) and suddenly I could reliable dodge and parry most attacks. Still requires precise timing, but now it’s a precise timing I can actually hit.
