as someone not deep in to games, I don't know what an iFrame is. A quick google came up with HTML inline frames. Maybe for future design-delves, if a piece of jargon is the centerpiece of the video, give a definition early on?

I-frames stands for "invulnerable frames", meaning the frames in an animation where the player is invulnerable. Knowing how long you're invulnerable during an action animation (like rolling) helps with the timing involved when trying to avoid damage from an attack. 😎☮️ PS: Google is rubbish these days, but try adding additional search terms, like "i-frames elden ring" (or even just "gaming") to help zero in on your desired results. Otherwise, you'll end up with all manner of things unrelated to what you’re actually looking for. 😉

Having checked out of Fromsoft entirely about DS 3 (and being too lonely for monster hunter back in the day) this was a really interesting comparison between two things I have little experience of but I could very easily follow and appreciate. It also made me think about the games I do play and how some just disregard it entirely; you get hit you get hit, or those that let you dodge anything but only if you time it perfectly. I never really liked FS dodge systems and I think that perceived jank was a big part of it (and I started with Bloodborne, the dodge heavy one!).
