Yeah but if I say “just takes practice” that’s not enough. Sekiro requires getting good, but anyone can do it with enough perseverance. Very few bosses can be cheesed, and you damn sure can’t just outlevel them.
That’s not really in the spirit of what this self-fellating elephant is trying to say though.
It is incredibly frustrating and demoralizing to be struggling with a difficult section of a game and turn to the community for help, only to get a condescending “git good”.
Honestly the autofellating elephant is a fantastic meme for this because it doesn’t do anything for anyone else and serves only to make the commenter feel good.
Specific help would be like “practice parry timing” “practice dodge timing” “memorize boss attack patterns”. But that applies to all the bosses pretty much so it’s covered under “git gud”.
Specific help would be more like “this boss has [x] attack pattern that has a big punish window after it, watch out for [y] though because it has a quick follow up”.
Aside from that though, your general help is still a step up from “git good” because it’s not so damn condescending. If your entire “help” is a sarcastic zinger you’re probably not helping at all.
