I mean, it should go without saying that I despise countering primarily because I suck at it. It is my Achille's heel. And of course (like Cuphead), when said mechanic is persistently pushed yet still optional in a manner eerily similar to a YouTube premium subscription, of course I'm gonna ignore it. So when the super-cool new mechanic eventually hits that point where it's mandatory, I suck even more at it because I haven't been practicing.

I should also mention that, because I'm old and me brain no work, I really struggle to keep track of all the button combos in the game. Hold R and press Y for the Grapple Beam. Press down, Hold Y (or Z?), and release after 3 seconds for the Power Bomb. Hold Y, Press Z twice, jump three times and touch your toes to activate the Floozle Beam. Hopefully this'll eventually fade if I end up liking the game enough for repeat playthroughs, but any time I have to stop in combat and remember what button combos produce what, I'm probably gonna die.
