That's the norm for Souls. That's basically the only reason that Souls games are more a Monster Hunter clone than character action games.
Well, I prefer character action games and thought this game was most-inspired by Nier Automata.
So I'm hoping despite the label of "Souls-like" it doesn't have that awful mechanic.

Oh, its more souls-like than DMC-like?
Well that's disappointing, I'm not as interested in it now.

Parry all attacks that don't have a yellow glow. If it has a yellow glow you can't block it or parry it you have to dodge it

From browsing Reddit, it sounds like you can cancel out of your attacks. So the souls comparison didn't come from being locked into your attacks.

But several people compared it more to Sekiro. The attacks are weighty and the timing for dodging or parrying is tight. And from watching a clip of one of the bosses, they looked pretty tanky.

So yeah, definitely not for me.

It's always been a block. In games, it's specifically when you press block right as an attack his you, as opposed to just holding block.

Finished it and I suck at soulslike games. It's decent, might pick it depending on how in-depth it is when it goes on sale.

I feel like a lot of action games have a Triangle+Circle Combination

What happens then?

So after trying the demo it's not bad. Definitely puts a lot of emphasis on being able to time parries well. Her dodge distance feels a bit too short. But on story (easy) mode, the bosses were doable for me.

Not a day 1 buy for me, but I might buy it on sale at a later date.

The misogynists at Resetera unsurprisingly don't like it.

Do the boss battle mode after beating it. All skills unlocked and useable to see the options she has in combat.

Dodge opens them up to counter attacks, parry is more about making enemies unbalanced/staggered where they just stay down while you unleash an entire combo it seems.

There will be glorious cosplays of her for at least 5 years at every con and it'll be glorious.
