This game has genuinely made me cry several times but I'm too stubborn to stop playing. I've just started and I can barely put a dent in the first big guy I come across, with the big club. I've got most of the basic mechanics down but I cant even scratch big guys and I struggle a lot against more than one or two small enemy like Enki. I've got a lot of basic movement and combos down, but it's nowhere near enough to play well. I have the dual swords and the big ass scythe, and I mainly use the dual swords, as the scythe just doesn't seem to be worth the Ki consumption, and feels quite clunky. I prefer a play style where I can get in and do some damage, then get out quick and avoid attacks easily. I'm still trying to get the Ki burst(or whatever it's called, R1 after an attack) down, but I'm getting better. I still could use some tricks of the trade, so to speak. Anyone have any advice? Especially on ways to restore health, which is honestly my main issue. (Nioh 2 on ps4 btw)

Edit: I have found that I also much prefer a tofna/dual sword combo over my original switch glaive/dual sword combo. The switchglaive, again, feels too clunky and slow for my play style, and the tofna also seems like a solid choice for enemies that have high Ki, as it seems like it focuses on Ki depletion over health. If y'all have tips for those as well, that would be greatly appreciated. (I have upgraded them to gave Demon Dance and Tiger Bite both, and they seem great to fit my playstyle, especially Demon Dance as they helps me get out quickly and recover Ki at the same time.)
