If the objective is to defeat the enemy, why would you get in the way of that by making me have to dodge? That's simply dishonest game design. Imagine working at Mcdonalds and your boss takes away all your ingredients. This is so stupid.

The Capra Demon is dishonest game design because they had to have learned in playtesting that 90% of the challenge in the fight is figuring out how to control the camera to actually kill the fucking dogs before you can get blocked in a corner and mobbed to death.
That fight is jank in a way that feels totally artificial because you're not fighting a diagetically hard challenge, you're fighting a metatextually hard challenge where managing the game's bad camera system is the entire difficultly curve.
Ornstein and Smough is difficulty in a good way. The Capra Demon is bad difficulty.

Capra is fine, you're just dumb. Stack some poise and ignore the dogs while only focusing on the capra demon, until you get into a position where you can kill the dogs. You get all kinds of poise from the undead merchant, hollow/balder knight drops, wolf ring not too far off, etc. It would have been cool if alluring skulls worked, but oh well. I think aural decoy spell from griggs actually works, but that is much less accessible.

If you drop a couple peanut butter sandwiches the dogs will be too busy licking their mouths to attack you.

My dumb normie girlfriend did it on her first try you fucking loser nigger casual

This is just accepting that the camera is so dogshit that tanking hits is the easiest solution to dealing with not being able to avoid the dogs and demon due to not being able to see anything.
Sure, if you go in with Havel gear, the fight is easy. But that is just coping with it being mechanically barely functional in a game where most boss fights are actually just fine.

>have to dodge
>DaS1
False.
>>
>>734212684

>dodge
huh? any real gamer beelines the heater shield and just tanks everything, upgrading to the appropriate crest shield for the environment

I don't think anyone could be dumb enough to unironically believe that.

>Havel fighting Artorias.webm
you literally don't have to dodge if you just have POISE
>>
>>734216237
I mean, the camera is kind of a problem yeah, but that's because the boss arena is so small and you are placed in such a closed off area at the start. The camera is just another consequence of that, and even if you had a perfect view of it like a top down perspective you're still often just fucked. It doesn't matter if you can see exactly what's happening if the capra demon and two dogs charging at you have attack frame windows overlap in a way that no roll will squeeze through them all. The boss was clearly designed to punish rollslop players, that was the entire point.

>>734212684
Dude, it's Dark Souls 1, you don't need to dodge at all, just equip full havel lmao

OP is falseflagging and samefagging to make souls haters look bad. All souls game are full of lazy hacks and look retarded. Just look at this shit.
>>
>>734216237
have you tried moving the camera in the direction you want to look?
>>
>>734221003
dont do stupid shit if you dont want to be punished
>>
I beat the game fucking overencumbered. Dodging is a choice in DaS1.
>>
>>734221284
The trick is doing that without only being able to see random vines or that tree in the corner.
>>
>>734212684
>Imagine working at Mcdonalds and your boss takes away all your ingredients
that happened to me once
>>
>>734221602
Ah I see. In this case I would suggest moving the camera away from the vines and the tree. This will allow you to see something other than them.

>>734212684
>dodging
I got the Artorias Greatshield after whooping Sif and never had to do that ever again.

>>734212684
Most classes start with a shield, you are supposed to use one
