A more complicated dodging system would be nice.

Out of curiosity, how would you make it more complicated?

I dunno, add more than just a roll, like a sidestep to get around to their back if you time it right, maybe make it so enemies would stumble a bit or fall down if you had frame perfect dodge timing or something.

So sort of like a parry equivalent for dodging? Maybe it's just because I'm an Arkham fanatic but I'd love the option for more acrobatic dodges with investment in certain stats. I'd love to be able to bust out goofy cartwheels over charging enemies, stuff like that.

Do remember that that's likely not intentional. True Allant, sure, although it's pretty clear False Allant is the de facto final boss. But Gwyn was very much meant to be a challenging boss and they did not realize they had designed him pretty poorly.

Nashandra is likely meant to be challenging too, given that she does a lot of damage when she hits; it more that she almost never does hit. There's also no real narrative reason for her to be weak, it's just bad boss design.

Ehhh I don't get the hate for Gwyn. He gave me way more trouble than Ornstein and Smough, and one of my favorite moments out of my playthrough of DS1 is when I walked through the fog gate, saw him do his crazy jump attack and somehow parried the dude.

I didn't beat him until I cheesed him with those pillars in the middle of the Kiln though, so maybe you have a point. :v:
