What game did you hate even after sinking a lot of time into it? (media.piefed.social)

The telegraphing was a sound more than visual. Learning that made things much more manageable. But I'm terrible at even that so I just made no dodge/parry builds and just tanked it all.

    Yeah, the two main cues are a sound ("swoosh" sfx) one and a visual (FOV rubber band) one.

    ... That's smart, why didn't I think of making a tank build, lol.

    Because it's not particularly encouraged by the game. Like you can, they give you the tools, but theres a bunch of stuff you can get earlier with perfect parrying, or is gated behind it entirely, so you feel like you should be doing it.
    Personally I found a mod to make the parry and dodge windows a little longer so I could reliably hit them, after which it became much less frustrating.
