Yes please. I have a kid. I can't die 20 times to a boss just so I can learn its moves and defeat it.

I tried Lies of P recently, made it to the first boss, and i just quit. This coming from someone who play dark souls, that boss is just too spongy and i have no patient to get through that, i have not much time to game anyway.

So i just get back to Project Zomboid.

That's the fun part tho. Either that or the game is just boring and can't even sustain the play time required to beat the boss. In that case don't bother, play a more enjoyable game.

What kind of games are we talking about? For action games like Furi it should be the fun part

Figuring out how to beat a boss and execute that strategy is always fun. It just depends on if it's Zelda where you do it without ever going down or Dark Souls where one mistake can end your attempt.
