After playing it, though, everything else related became not only easier, but lot more fun. It's still one of my most favoutite games, and i thank it for teaching me so much: mostly, to have a faster mind so i could learn enemies' attack patterns, and learn to notice enemies' movements with more ease and a lot quicker; helped me have a faster reaction time, even irl.

Sekiro was just sooooo good, its just way more dependent on you learning the game, because you can not realy get better weapons etc.. But there is way more to learn, to master. You realy get the feeling that you get better and not the character.

Sekiro is definitely the souls game with the steepest learning curve. First playthrough destroyed me! But when it finally clicks, its truly exhilarating, and it goes from being the toughest to one of the easiest. Kind of hard to rank these, but i think Elden Ring and Bloodborne might be the hardest to returning players.

If you play a normal build and use no summons you're telling me Malenia was easy? I played DS3 Cinders and I still didn't face a single boss as difficult as Malenia or Radahn. In Bloodborne most difficult boss for me was probably Gascoigne. Once I learned the game I beat the end bosses pretty easily. DS1 is easy as fuck and DS2 just has too many issues. But yeah Sekiro is my favorite game of theirs.

I did that too, with mainly two handed weapon or two weapons in each hands and no bleed build, I didn't thought it was the hardest, but by far not the easiest

I breezed through DS2, so I was pretty surprised to see it higher on the list than a lot of other games. But then I saw you flash Scholar of the First Sin, which is a bit different. Curious how you would rank the original though. (Also for those of you who don't know, get the ring of life protection so you don't lose life when you die. Better to repair a ring than to keep buying effigy.)

Bloodborne being my first Souls series game definitely made me both despise and fall in love with the series at the same time (Cleric beast took me no joke 30 attempts and a 2 month break before I got it).

You putting Bloodborne at 1st made me feel so much better

I really hope after the Elden Ring DLC they do something different, fans would love a sequel to any of those games, but hopefully it’s a unique new title.

Bloodborne is the only one of these games that I've beaten so far. It took a lot of time and some grinding (which I mostly did for fun because the moment to moment gameplay in Bloodborne is so much fun) but it was so satisfying. I'm working on the Demons Souls remake now.

Came to a point where i felt border line invincible in sekiro. Then i came in contact with the corrupted monk. After i finally beat her i was feeling good. Then i found the demon of hatred. Its a very humbling expirence

Bloodborne is the most consistent in its difficulty and if you factor in some of the hardest chalice dungeon bosses I can definitely agree it's hardest. I may have given up on Sekiro, but you couldn't pay me enough to replay every single chalice dungeon of Bloodborne.

Blood Borne was for me always the easiest. I only needed 1-3 tries for every boss except Logarius (and the dlc but that was ng+). I see many people say that the more agressive games are the hardest but for me it's the opposite. The more agressive the game the easier it gets.

Pretty much, one of the reason Soulborne game considered difficult because it flips the usual action game priority (defense + survival first over all-out aggression). Bloodborne also give you some crutch to go along with the offensive mindset (rally mechanic).

@mattevans1643

Жыл бұрын

Bloodborne is easy once you figure it out. If you want it to be hard use weapons that have very little stagger ability, completely changes the game. The parry system is easy, especially once you get the ability to heal from visceral attacks. I would say the hardest boss had to be Laurence from the DLC, with Ludwig coming in second. KOS was a joke, everyone that says he was hard never learned how to parry. As for main game, I would say Amygdala in the chalice dungeon, not in the Nightmare, or Rom in the Chalice dungeon. Only because for some reason in the chalice dungeon, Rom can get into an infinite loop where she spams the meteor attack, and there's nothing you can do except die to restart the fight, cause she also spawns spiders during this glitch. And Amygdala because unlike the Nightmare fight your stats are cut in half, and the Arena is much smaller which makes it incredibly hard to dodge his attacks.

Yeah, that's why Dark Souls 2 is the hardest.

I recently bought Bloodborne as my first Souls game. I played it with a friend, which made it easier, but I see what makes this hard. A typical hit and run tactic often times doesn't work and timing is hard. That being said it's still really adictive and it's not really as frustrating as I expected it.

Bloodborne was my first souls game and it took me like 10 hours to figure out what the hell I was doing, and it wasn't too difficult after that point. I had never played anything like it before. The art in this game is the best, hope it gets a remaster for the PS5 soon.

The first release of Demon's Souls back in 2007 had a 4-way dodge which made the game harder than it is in the remake and something like this is worth mentioning at least.

If you are used to the other soulsborne titles sekiro can be quite difficult in a sense that you had to relearn a couple of things you picked up from the other titles. Parrying and facing the enemy head on is such a huge deal in this game. I was literally raging the first couple of times when i got 360 no scoped you after a dodge.

Bloodborne makes it easier because you have 20 heals from the beginning, and you can upgrade that with runes, making it a total of 24 at the cost of a rune space. In Dark Souls you have 3 heals, you can upgrade the flask yes, but it will take time. The parry it's also faster and easier in Bloodborne so you don't need a shield to cover yourself with

My first game was DSIII and it was very difficult considering my play style of using twin blade doging, no shield no magic, after it i played bloodborn and it was perfect with my play style dodging while the gun for parry, i believed i finished the first run within 12-15 hourse chosing waking up from the dream as first ending.
