thank you for explaining the incredibly simple concept that I am already well aware of. Dark Souls came out in 2011 and while people could take interest in the game's story or world, they only ever think of Dark Souls as "that really hard game". but at this point it just sounds annoying and stupid to call games that. just because a game is hard doesnt mean its comparable to dark souls

You know you're taking this just a tad far, for a thread title, rather than talking about the topic subject itself right?.

I could have called it "they are BIllions - A really hard fucking game innit", but that didn't roll off the tongue and I'm not here to appeal to those who get easily wound by using a different set of words to describe a game's difficulty.

There really isn't anything more to add to the deal with the ending title, so let's keep this topic back on track. 

my only issue is how saturated the phrase has become. only a few months ago we had people calling Cuphead the "dark souls" of action platformers. then earlier in the year we had the noobs who couldnt figure out how to play BotW call it the "dark souls" of zelda. by all means talk about how you love the game. if its really that good then it for sure deserves the attention, but its just diminishing at this point to say its like dark souls
