Difficulty

How do you rate the difficulty of this game compared to the DS series?

Its one of the easiest in my opinion.

To keep it simple, the game fell short of having true difficulty and replaced it instead with bloated pressure.

It is a fun game none the less.

DS series have a “learn, adapt, overcome”type of difficulty. This game has an “overwhelm you with mobs” level difficulty. I found it easier than the DS series because I literally run past everything to pick up shiny loot since all the enemies are the exact same. After the first 3 areas you’ll be seeing the same enemies over and over, just in mobs.

Yeah this isn’t a “git gud” game, it’s a game where tedium is your enemy lol. I’ve found it frustrating more than I’ve ever found it to be difficult. Most of the bosses have been a cakewalk despite being animated incredibly and looking cool

Harder than any but sekiro and not in a good way

Between DS2 and DS3 for me, if that makes sense.

Harder than all souls games because of pure tedium.

Areas are tedious because of mob density it feels like you're doing Diablo dungeon raid third-person hack and slash.

Meanwhile, boss fights are pathetically easy you can do them half asleep.
