About this mod
Improves the Perfect Guard mechanic, aiming to make it feel a bit more Sekiro-like. Slightly increased window and decreased delay between attempts.

Overview
Increases the Perfect Guard window from 9.3 frames -> 15 frames.
Also decreases the Perfect Guard "lock" duration from 30 frames -> 21 frames.
The lock duration governs, insofar as I can tell, the forced buffer between parry attempts - how long after releasing the guard input (without having parried) until you can perform a Perfect Guard. Or, put another way, how long after a mistimed parry until a successful one can be registered.
The change to lock duration does not reward spam, but is slightly more forgiving, allowing you to sometimes still get a Perfect Guard in after attempting too early - which is pretty common with certain heavily delayed enemy attack animations. I'm open to feedback on tuning both these values further, but these felt pretty good to me - feels a bit more Sekiro-like, which was the intent.
"Lite" version (window 9.3 frames -> 12 frames, no other changes) also available.
To be clear, this is not intended as a "cheat" mod to make the game easier, though obviously it will make parrying just slightly easier to pull off. It's not a drastic change, however; 12/15 frames is still quite tight.
Installation
- download one version of the mod from the files tab (default or Lite version)
- create a ~mods folder in your local game directory's Paks folder
- if using Steam, this path can be found by right-clicking the game in your library and selecting "Manage"->"Browse local files"
- i.e., ".../steamapps/common/Lies of P/LiesofP/Content/Paks/~mods"
- extract the .pak file to the ~mods folder
To uninstall, simply delete the .pak file from the ~mods folder.
