Yeah, it gets a bit tiresome when you're doing a spin move (etc.) and realize you have to parry, only to have the timing miss because you can't force cancel the move you're doing. Same goes with trying to heal when you're being knocked around, stunned, and so on. Venturing into higher difficulties with this crap to deal with...naw, I'll save myself the torture.
Overall, fairly enjoyable, though I'm not the biggest SW fan in general, so some of the appeal is lost. I'll go check out the new sequel trailer, now that spoilers ain't an issue, haha. Hopefully it has better dialogue, 'cause I get the sense that some characters (like Greez) are trying to be funny and everything they say tends to fall flat. Even Aloy's jokes landed more often and she had the personality of a featureless beige wall.
