Hi! It's a Firebird Studio. I don't think I like it very much but it has been my main and then only ax for almost two decades, I think. I grew up and had a family so it's been sorely neglected (as have any skills I might have once had), but the kids are now saying they want to play so it might come out this weekend if I can restring it.
I meant basically that although Steve Vai is an exceptional guitarist, I don't think he writes good music. Hendrix did both effortlessly. Just my opinion. I don't know why you have to drag Stevie Ray Vaughn into it, but definitely a talented lad too.
I like a rough edge, I like self-taught, I like innovation a million miles away from the technical insistence of music colleges. That's Hendrix, Cobain, Neil Young... punk without necessarily being punk. Raw, emotive, powerful.
My response to that would be that I'm not "gud". There are different degrees of "gud". I'd say I'm possibly "gud enuf" to blunder through the game to the end. We will see. Then there are others who are very familiar with the feel of Souls-likes, having played them for years over and over.
The example I used is the Grafted Scion, which is possible to beat at level 1 if you're "gud". The rest of us will die almost immediately.
Most bosses I have to try anywhere from 3 to 10 times, and I haven't even got to the endgame fights yet. Looking forward to getting back on tonight now I'm back from holiday.
I'd just say keep at it. Use Spirit Ashes and level them up via gravewort (found in catacombs) after you meet Roderika near the entrance to Stormveil (there's a small group of shacks to the south of the gate iirc). There's also an NPC summon to the right of Margit's gate. The elation after beating a boss you've tried a zillion times is like nothing else.
