What this mod does is pretty simple: it allows you to perform "grapple struggle reversals" in all grapple situation. In other words, it allows you to perform reversals even when you're not tried to be subdued. [How it works] As soon as you're grappled you'll see another that says "Reverse" prompt upside of "Break Free" button. This button will be half-filed and drain over time. If you don't act quickly or fail the button mashing mini game the button will turn red and your only option will be "Break Free". How this button reacts will change depending on your Hold Assist settings. CONTROLS E or Triangle = Mash grapple button to reverse enemies grapple This feature will also be added to Enhanced Brawling later. When I add this to Enhanced Brawling, you won't need to download this individually. [DONATIONS] These mods take a lot of time to develop and test to make sure that every function is working properly. So, I'd appreciate donations if you would like to support what I do. Here's my Patreon if you want to support me.
