If you attempt combat on the horse and get knocked off, sometimes the camera bugs and locks you into facing a single direction and you’ll start to fly until you mount the horse and dismount again.
Secondly there are times when you perfectly time a combo and it doesn’t excute. I experienced this a lot practicing the first combo your taught where I would excute all three strikes and it ends in a normal slash or the thirsd strike doesn’t preform at all. It flashes like its going to and you bug out and just don’t swing at all. Lastly Master Strikes are too random, there is no real control over it. A perfectly timed parry rarely ends in a Master strike. It would be nice if there were some aids to assisting combos or a detailed mechanics guide.
