Hesitation is defeat
I've been stuck on Isshin Sword Saint for a week now
Got him to his 3rd form today for the first time, and there's still another form to go
I just wanna beat this game so I can move on to the Dead Space remake
Dang bruh I wish I saved my battle. I would post it.
I was like you and stuck on the third fight (second form of isshin with the gun and spear)
Honestly he was easy once I figured him out.
You should be able to beat Genichiro and Isshin form 1 with little to no damage and no deaths. On a good run I would get past them in 5 mins or so.
As for Isshin form 2, Deflect most his moves and use mikiri counter when possible.
When he does that high jump and slam spear move, walk towards him as he jumps and then dash towaeds/ behind him as he slams down. You can hit him afterwards
Also, don’t be afraid to use the sheild prosthetic. I used it when he would do his unblockable whirl wind attack.
If you can get pass that form then his next one just adds lightening attack.
