    I was a couple of attempts short of calling it quits on Simon in Clair Obscur. I don’t like QTEs and the whole fight is “parry or die”

    And yes I know now that I could have done the cheese strat of megabuffing Maille for a one shot but I think reading strategy guides for single player games is a major dork move

    Afterward, I wasn’t excited or proud. I was just relieved to not think about it anymore

      my friends don’t get that. its an extra credit boss in a single player game, why would I spoil that for myself with a guide someone else made?

      i haven’t beaten him yet, I give it a few tries every month or so. my way of prolonging the beauty of the game I guess lol

        Yeah…I can’t imagine being proud of the accomplishment if you’re just following a step-by-step guide.
