On my last playthrough, I actually killed the bull the legitimate way, but I just can’t be bothered to with DoH. It’s not a bad fight per se, but it just doesn’t really fit Sekiro, imo, and is a little tedious. I’ve heard of people oftentimes saying that DoH would fit Bloodborne a lot more. Wouldn’t mind him there tbh
I have an on and off playthrough of eldenring going on right now, stuck on Commander Niall at castle sol. I’ll have real long breaks, like month long between picking it up and getting stuck (violently angry) and butting it down (deleting the game). The worlds, landscapes, themes, characters, designs, music, and even the cryptic storylines I just complained about, I adore.
On our current playthrough, I just said fuck it and started using summons. They’re part of the game - who’s to stop me from using them. Plus, I feel like many fights are balanced around the fact that summons exist, so not using them puts you at an immediate disadvantage. Did the same for Niall, who was also giving me quite a bit of trouble, and beat him. Black Knife Tishe is pretty bonkers if you get your hands on her. Maybe your level is not high enough too? Farming up a little wouldn’t hurt. Or maybe you could try switching up your weapons. I know some people frown upon it, but the tried and true sword & shield combo is a classic for a reason.
