I can certainly understand that the play style of games like Dark Souls and Bloodborne aren't for everyone. However, I do question some of your criticisms. I personally feel the Souls games do atmosphere better than most due to the worlds, the ambient sounds and the fact that absolutely everything can kill you if you don't have your wits about you.

The character creator is pretty detailed in terms of how your character looks but is generally just a bunch of sliders. The first area in Bloodborne is quite grey but the game does get more colourful the further you progress. I completely disagree with "crappy textures" but that's an eye of the beholder thing. The game is incredibly detailed.

As others have said, it doesn't seem like you've put in a great deal of time into it as you've described about the first half of the first area before giving up. These games are very much a learning experience as well as a game. If you don't put in the time to learn the mechanics and patterns of the enemies then you're doomed to many, many deaths. They're not for you, and that's fine. Certainly doesn't make them terrible games though.
