Never really understood the antithetical circle jerk of people bragging that the game was easy. Yeah, it's easy once you learn the mechanics. Pyro wipes the floor with literally every enemy and boss in DkS. But you can't deny how well the game challenges you to adapt to new scenarios and punishes you for getting into a routine. I'd say that if you noticed a marked change in difficulty throughout the game, it's because the game succeeded in showing you how to be better.

Dark Souls really isn't all that terribly difficult. It could be much, much harder. But it's hard enough to make you feel like you accomplished something.

His eyebrows sparkling, his white beard hangs down to his chest. The thatched mats, spread outside his chise, spread softly, his splendid attos. He polishes, cross-legged, his makiri, with his eyes completely absorbed.

He is Ainu.

The god of Ainu Mosir, Ae-Oine Kamuy, descendant of Okiku-Rumi, He perishes, a living corpse. The summers day, the white sunlight, unabrushed, ends simply through his breath alone.
Dark Souls is only hard because most "hard" modes nowadays are just "half the attack power of the player, double the enemies' health" and encourages just spamming every enemy you come across until they're dead. Dark Souls is just being patient and observant. Really, its only "hard" bit is how it sends you back to the bonfire without your souls, but it's not hard to just run past every enemy to get back to where you were.

Demon Souls is infinitely better than Dark Souls 1 and 2.

Nope, haven't been brutally punished. Likely because I'm extremely adaptive to changing circumstances and very quick at it. Still not challenging enough though.

fuck you
Once you played a few hours it's easy.

It's just the idiots that go in expecting it to be a spoon fed game and get killed twice and rage, then say it's too hard. Or make up an excuse saying it's bad because they died.

1. The only thing I like about Dark Souls is the lore, which is very well done.

2. once you get to a certain point you pretty much have a strategy and it's pretty easy.

I'd recommend one of two options, either playing Dark Souls for the atmosphere, or playing another game. If you're not enjoying the experience and it feels trivial you might be better off not playing it.

It's a great feeling when you help someone beat a particularly hard boss and they send you messages thanking you

Yeah it isn't that hard at all, just have to be careful and take it slow. But after like NG+6 it gets pretty hard I'll admit that.

You will find out who you are not a thousand times, before you ever discover who you are. I hope you find peace in yourself and learn to love instead of hate.
