   After playing it for another hour or two last night, I am almost   
   thinking that this game is designed more for the Ninja Gaiden players   
   out there. See, on Conan things come at you so much slower, so you have   
   time to formulate your plan...plus, you just have one block button. With   
   GA, you're attacked by hordes, and WHILE you're attacking they can   
   attack, so you really have to be quick to get by. What the game   
   requires, for you to be a good player, is that you have the reflexes to   
   attack multiple characters at once, all the while watching them to see   
   when/if they attack and with what method(parry blockable, or sidestep).   
   You parry/sidestep, then immediately retaliate with an attack and just   
   keep going. To me, it's all too fast, and I can't get used to the two   
   types of blocking.
