EASILY one of the if not the worst-designed boss battles made in any game; impressive graphical and sonical prowess, but the actual design of the game itself is so so so so so so so terrible and buggy. you CAN NOT force players to learn extremely technical and specific "patterns" (that don't actually exist, the AI just has an insane advantage over you for no reason) just for those rules to be entirely ignored by the bosses, along with the fact the game damages you for trying new things and experimenting instead of supporting the idea of new concepts. an absolutely buggy and flawed piece of media.

edit - I've given this game several chances over several years, so this isn't a game i tried once and gave up on. it has amazing ideas and designs and i truly want to like it, just the core of the game itself is awful.

i think you need to watch a few videos on how to get into playing because nothing you said is correct... as a testament to the game i am disabled and i still learned how to damageless most of the bosses. i dont understand what you mean by 'technical and specific patterns'. ds1 bosses have very readable attacks, so i think you might be misunderstanding something... its not everyones game but i can offer you advice and resources if you want it ? it is very cool once you learn.
