I think the damage may already be done to Unity. Devs have been moving to alternatives like Unreal and I doubt this walk back would make them change their minds.
It's currently included with Game Pass plus there is a demo (I think it's still available) so you can try it without having to buy it. Spending $60+ always gives me pause.
I was also hoping for better dodging as I am terrible at parrying. I struggled with Sekiro because it's so reliant on parrying but I did enjoy it up until I got to Genichiro as I was never able to beat him.
I've only gotten past the first major boss but I never felt like it was too difficult or too easy. A lot of the souls like games seems to struggle with the right balance of difficulty and just don't seem to "get it". The combat feels good, hits feel solid and I don't feel like I'm getting screwed over. I'm really liking the game so far, the enemies and environmental storytelling are definitely souls inspired. Also, screw the chimney sweeps.
Plus Matrix is something that is still new to people and some users are more comfortable with Discord. Many users are still adjusting to the concept of Lemmy and how federation works. Fortunately this bridge will help the two groups connect to each other and maybe in the future we can move to only using Matrix.
Alright, you are now a mod. Good luck!!
