Club age 21 spared
Didnt realise I had to ONLY parry, thats pretty annoying

gave up sparing in the museum for now, cant even make it past the first phase

Club age 20
Boss health too low to spare

BEAT FIRST LEVEL AT AGE 20!!!
Got to age 23 on the Club, not sure whether to grind for age 20 but I have to go back to spare anyway. This game sucks so much time away lol

Trying to complete some PS+ games before the subscription expires! (on the 18th)

Spent like 2 hrs trying to beat the first level with no deaths. Gave up and ended up age 27.

Fun gameplay! Very similar to Ghost of Tsushima, but I think this is much more fair with KOs pushing all other enemies away and giving immunity. I don't understand how meter and "focus" work though so it's much less clear how much I have to hit and what exactly TO do to cause any real damage. The ludonarrative dissonance criticism from other reviews is definitely there, but I really didn't expect to be enjoying the combat this much.

The art direction is really great too.
