Hellblade: Senua's Sacrifice - Valravn God of Illusion Boss Fight (Boss #1)

Valravn God of Illusion Boss Fight in Hellblade Senua's Sacrifice.
Valravn is the first boss in Hellblade.
At the start of the game take the left path to fight this boss (if you go right you'll encounter Surtr God of Fire, but you'll have to fight both of them anyway).
This boss isn't too difficult. Some attacks can be parried with a well timed block (press R2). The boss likes to throw projectiles at you from a distance. A quick way to close the gap is to press X, which makes you dodge forward. You can also dodge sideways to counter Valravn's jump attacks and then attack with a few heavy attacks from behind.
During the fight some smaller enemies will spawn. As soon as the spawn use the X - Square - Square - Triangle - Triangle to kill them instantly (if performed correctly, Senua dashes forward and performs a quick stab combo).
Remember you can change the difficulty in game options at any time. If you get knocked on the ground press X very quickly to get back up.
During the last phase you must press R2 to use your vision and make the boss vulnerable. If you don't do it the boss will appear as a shadow shape and won't take damage from your attacks.
