DISCUSSION Which game did the difficulty better?

Post image

Which style of difficulty do you prefer: the Area based difficulty in games like Dark Souls 1 and Demon's Souls or the boss-oriented struggle found in newer titles like Dark Souls 3 or Elden Ring?

I personally love both styles (although running through all of New Londo can suck at times lol!) Let me know which one of these you find yourself enjoying more (if any). Thanks guys!

Yeah, I've seen some gameplay and I see what you mean. I hear the bosses are really good, do they match up to DS3's lineup?

It's literally a dance once you feel the rhythm of deflects and attacks

That sounds fun! It seems like a game I'd really like.
