[IMPORTANT] The infamous Kirin's fight

Hey guys,

quite a few people are complaining about the Kirin boss fight (and they are totally right!). The thing is that a bug is preventing the game to signal a couple of important things to the player, so they can better fight against Kirin.

We are patching this immediately, but in the meanwhile, if you find yourself unable to kill Kirin in a reasonable amount of time, make sure to read the following:

In the Second Phase of the boss fight, there are two giant thorns at both sides of the arena. The purpose is to get Kirin crush against those, while jumping back (using the interaction button) at the right time. Make sure to hit those thorns with the katana to make them go down and be ready to impale Kirin. If you manage to do this a couple times, Kirin will die much quicker than killing him one hit at a time.

Sorry for the inconvenience and hope you have fun!

For those who want to know how to do it, we have recorded a short gameplay clip that shows exactly how to kill Kirin in less time:

Did you have a look at the video? Do you still think that it should be nerfed down? Thanks for your feedback!

I did this "infamous" boss and figured out the wall jump step in second half without problem after a little trial and error. Did it pretty good once i understood the pattern and perfected it without a problem.
STill it took me about 20 try, most due to the unfair amount of damage you take if u miss a imput in the QTE, and i did it A LOT that night due to tireness.

So maybe you should balance that because if you fail you just have another try before dying..

What really pissed me more was the "Crab" robot later.. that one feel really boring the first time, because you basically could attack it with base slash and nothing else... and it automatically ONE SHOT you if you fail to jump.

Ok this game is hard and technical but a little bit on the frustratrion side....

Still enjoying it a lot, i just finished the Dragon part and woah.. that was even harder and complex aha!!

Oh yeah, that one is a bad boy. We can nerf it down a bit
