Metal Gear Rising: Revengeance constantly boasts about parrying! The game always says "PARRY IS THE BEST. PARRYING IS THE KEY TO SOLVE ALL YOUR PROBLEMS. PARRYING IS YOUR LORD AND SAVIOUR. PARRYING DIED FOR YOUR SINS". However, the game doesn't do a very good job of TELLING YOU HOW TO PARRY. Hud on the gameplay screen says "X+Towards enemy attack". So, you try and do that several times but all you do is block! So then you're like "screw it" and cheese your way through the game. I looked it up on the internet constantly. But all the sources I went to just said "X+Towards Enemy Attack*. I tried over and over and over and over BUT I JUST KEPT BLOCKING. IT WOULD NEVER END. I got my way to the final boss without knowing how to parry believe it or not, and I finally, FINALLY figured out how parrying works!!!!!


You block at last second.
