Those kind of Games are too much on how incredibly difficult they are rather than on how fun a Game should be, it's an interesting fad type of idea, but it was bound to happen where people start to get bored of that type of Game.

I think the difficulty of the Soulsborne games are a bit of a misconception, in the games, you're kind meant to die a lot, it helps you learn how to fight better, Demon's Souls was a bit less lenient as you had to buy healing items, rather than getting them at a bonfire, or from enemies. I'm still into the style of game and I'm glad they're going for a different sort of genre this time.

I think that those kind of Games can be harsh on players trying to get into the franchise personally.

I get the idea and appeal of the Games, it's just I would iron out some teething problems.

I got into the series via Bloodborne, there was a learning curve, but I found it much easier than I was expecting, the games are a lot more forgiving than people give them credit for. In a way I think the whole "super difficult" reputation works in their favour. I went back to the start and played Demon's Souls, and now I've just started Dark Souls... and its kinda easy for me now

Maybe I'm just a bad player then.

The difficulty never bothers me, it's how homogenised that genre is. Nioh, Bloodborne and Nioh should all feel like wildly different games but it's like playing the same game with different licks of paint.

Code Vein looks like it could be janky but decent though I guess, at least it's trying something different.

I think that every genre in Video Gaming goes through this crisis at some point.

There'll be a Game in the genre that will come along and reinvent the genre.
