Right... As if parents don't give their kids cellphones or completely unsupervised access to the internet...

You're giving Joe and Jane Doe way too much credit here.

I'm sure parents actually supervising the internet usage of their kids are a very small percentage.

Yeah, I know about the sound. I've watched multiple videos with guides how to parry. Somehow my brain refuses to get it

It's a me thing, I couldn't get the hang of parrying in elden ring, and not even in botw can I do it. But put me on e.g. Interrupt duty in wow, and I won't miss a single interrupt. I could time the bonus jumping attacks in Mario rpg games without any issue.

I'm not a bad gamer by any means, but for some reason I can never ever get the hang of fucking parryibg.

I hate parrying so much. I can never get the hang of it in any game. I can play twitch shooters at a decent level, I can play the most challenging platformers without any issue, my reaction time is OK for someone of my age, but give me a parry mechanic and it all falls apart. For some reason, my brain cannot handle video game parrying.

I ended up downloading a mod that extends the parry window by 500% in Claire obscure. I still fucking fail at it at times. It completely ruins the game for me :(
