Yeah I struggled on this boss. It's not a joke on this part, really tough to beat.

very helpful video! great voice and style!

This boss killed me 30 times on my first play through. That’s more than any of the bosses in the souls games. Not even kidding

Thx , btw there's no one to help you with that invocation thing.

This is part of my issue with this type of game: if I'm just trying to run away for most of the boss fight, how is that fun? It doesn't feel like a fairly balanced boss fight. It's literally running away to survive and sneaking in a quick attack every now and then. It's an exercise in patience more than skill. And it's actually pretty boring.
