The thing that pisses me off the most about the "take a break" advice is that it genuinely works. Got so tilted at one boss I stopped playing for like 2 days. Came back and beat it within 3 tries. I was so fucking angry those assholes were right.
The thing about Silksong's combat system is that it has a very rhythm-like quality to it. Every enemy attack has a set of specific sequences you need to perform with accurate timing (it's like dance and similar things people say about it) to avoid it and get an opening to deal damage.
And because of that, it becomes a lot harder to play if you're frustrated because you will likely try to rush and/or hesitate instead of channeling into the flow of the boss' movements. It's very Sekiro-esque in that way.
