I remember I tried Dark Souls, and I got dismantled. Again. And again. And then Bloodborne came out; and the good people of Reddit told me "nah, go ahead and play it! It's so much easier than Dark Souls, basically Bloodborne is for challenged people like you, who cannot play Dark Souls!"
And I drank that Kool Aid, I GULPED it. And they lied, mate, they're all liars. So I ended up looking at long loading screens, pre-patch, in Bloodborne. It was an amazing experience. Scarred my psyche. I went to Gamestop after a week, to give it back, and lady there "Wow! You finished it?!" I died inside.
After a couple of years, I bought it again, digital copy, and stuck with it, I am almost finished with it. While I improved my game, so to speak, it's still pretty harsh. I can only imagine my tears trying to play DS... which is supposedly way more difficult.
Butsircaw can show me how it's done I guess.
the games are so massive to say one is harder than the other is a little unfair.
I think there are sections in the game that are step-ups or get good moments.
bloodborne Farther Gascgonie for example is one of those bosses that you need to respect. to me its the first ok, you get past him, you have what it takes to finish this whole game. i have had friends that have quit at him, raging after 10 goes never to play the game again.
Take Darksouls the original game, when i first played it i was like wtf is this, its easy, i was smashing stuff, yes i came from a hardcore raiding wow guild so it really helped me. But i was tearing through the game then i got to ornstean and smough, well that fight there made me respect the game, they fucked me up royally.
There are moments like this in all these games, some bosses look menacing but are not, some are beyond awful.
Some areas, blighttown etc can be soul destroying, take your time be careful. 1 silly mistake its the whole thing again, that's the killer.
Another thing to consider is don't play these games when your not focused or your tired. Dont come home from a long hard day at work and start bloodborne unless your a vet.
being tired or not focused while trying to play these types of games are going to ruin your night.
but if you do go into these games being half asleep, just looking to fuck around your in for a bad time. these games demand respect, attention span needs to be on point.
