"This game sucks not because it's hard. It sucks because whenever you die, and you will die many times, you have to repeat everything you just did exactly."
This made no sense to me. Are you expecting to just revive right back to where you were or a few steps back and try the same thing again? That's what we consider "the game holding your hand". If Demon's Souls was like this, it would be no more difficult than every other game on the hard difficulty setting. You say you want a challenge but you're looking for the experience offered in every other game.
The game putting you back to the beginning forces you to learn from your mistakes. Also, people have a habit of getting frustrated and trying to rush back to where they were. This only gets you killed sooner. You're forced to stay calm and collective and not rush anything.
