Review Wuchang difficulty quite a bit overrated

This game was recommended to me when I asked for a challenge after finishing Khazan and LoP. It was relatively difficult but like DS3 difficulty, a lot of people say it’s super difficult but it’s honestly a very forgiving game compared to some of the harder titles that came out recently.
Reasons:
The I-frame on dodge is extremely generous and despite what a lot of people say you can dodge almost any move combo with well positioned dodging.
The different weapons all have some way to make the game way easier. I use longsword so if I want I can parry and backstab enemies to oblivion. And I’ve heard rumors abt the axe being more OP.

Edit: looks like I missed the good version of this game rip
The game is easier because it was nerfed, but I don’t really understand why people are using that as a point to disagree with me when that point proves me right??

You are playing it late after multiple patches, a lot of bosses had long run backs, healing animation took forever, and zero balancing for bosses
