Holy shit.
I’ve been using LHB most of the game, almost entirely two-handed. When I first hit the Orphan, I thought, oh my god this guy’s fast, so I switched to 1-handed, but that didn’t seem fast enough, so I read a bit of others’ experiences and ended up buying and tricking out Blade of Mercy. Cool weapon, but after maybe a dozen tries I realized the range was not enough for me, so back to 1h LHB. Several tries later I think, you know what I’m just gonna try 2-handing it. Beat him then and there, although it was still quite pulse-pounding. After that the MP was trivial, so much so that it has to be intentional.
What a great game.
P.S. the credits music would be right at home on the Bram Stoker’s Dracula soundtrack, and I love it.
