>Why does the mechanic stay consistent and not change based on my arbitrary thoughts

disgusting BUG-vania

They should have you take contact damage from every corpse you pick up an item from too, just to keep things consistent.

Yeah, it's fucking retarded.
This game is 2D souls if it was shit.

>>724240885
don't walk into a stunned enemy that is standing in place?

>>724240885
Is there any other game where an enemy
1- do contact damage
2- get stunned
3- doesn't do contact damage while stunned?

>>724244320
All of them, just about.

>>724240885
ok? your sword is like 3x Hornet's body width, you shouldn't be that close anyway

>>724241168
Irrefutable. A stunned enemy should be just as dangerous as a corpse.

>>724241062
What's the lore reason to have contact damage anyway? Hornet is different species or something and can't withstand a touch of certain bug?
If it's not lore reason, but gameplay reason, then why introduce stunned enemies anyway? I can heal mid-air already
In 3D soulslikes it's at least for crit but it's not, so it's rudimentary, right

gitguuders can't comprehend a possibilty of more satisfying combat design that isn't less "difficult"

It's only a "fuck you" because contact damage is so deadly in this game. Enemies should continue to have a hitbox when stunned so you can pogo them reliably. It'd be more bullshit if you clipped right through them after reaching an arbitrary damage threshold.

not related -- can have no damage and a hitbox, the technology is there already
