Why am I so bad at beat-em-ups? Played Lollipop Chainsaw, God Hand, and Viewtiful Joe, and couldn't get very far in any of them before ragequitting. My attacks seem to do no damage, whereas when I watch people play the games, they kill enemies in a few hits. I'm clearly doing something wrong. I get that beat-em-ups have multiple attack buttons, and I'm supposed to be performing combos, but I cannot for the life of me figure out when to use which attacks.
i remember enemies in lollipop chainsaw were spongy as hell, but you gotta be doing something wrong in viewtiful joe
try playing on easy mode. no shame in it.
