Extremely rewarding feeling and a very clever way to drop the usual shield block.

So many times, I’d run in, dump my stamina bar with a flurry of attacks, see the enemy wind up, hit hardened mode, then wait for the baddie to stagger off me by bouncing off my hardened body, and then repeat opening up on him with my sword. Not only can you stay in hardened mode for an extremely long amount of time or until you’re hit, but you can also get your stamina back while hardened. Mortal Shell is a deep action-RPG developed by Cold Symmetry and published by Playstack. The number of times in the game where I was in the middle of an attack, saw something that was going to hit me, I was able to harden and save my bacon was countless.

Originally posted by Rizz: Kind of annoying I just bought base edition for 0.40 more than the deluxe edition and will now end up never getting this DLC because of some dumb glitch, they should just give the DLC for free for anyone who owns the game now.

in mortal shell you gotta remember how long your attack and enemies is and calculate in advance the wind up time so you know when it'll hit so you time it right. mortal shell is more like dark souls, slower.

Another of the major differences of this game and other major Dark Souls clones is the “hardening” mechanic, which really stands Mortal Shell apart from other games in this genre. Black Emperor: thymesia is much more fast paced and plays like bloodborne with tiny tiny hint of sekiro.
