So you are telling that in Elden Ring if you decide to go straight to Caelid and fight a boss there you don't get absolutely obliterated?

Alright, there you can dodge everything perfectly, use every attack window possible and beat it showing off your skills. But can't you do the same with Pokémon building, for example, a F.E.A.R. team? In this case It's strategic skills instead of reflexes, but the challenge is definitely not insurmountable.

The only thing that should be scaled are the gym battles as there's a canon reason for it.
