this is one of the most pathetic threads ive ever witnessed. a guy does not like a game and points out various reasons why he does not feel it is a game deserving of all the praise it has received, and in response people just respond with "stop it! youre wrong! just because you dont like it doesnt mean its a bad game. its a great game that a lot of people love. stop having a negative opinion and praise the game even though you dont like it!" and sure they dress it up and try to act formal but thats basically all i cant find that refutes the OP.
heres my stance. i have never played a Souls game so i cant judge it based on substance. but from a 'outside looking in' perspective, the game is more than flawed. i dont see the point of having a game so outrageously difficult that it could take dozens of tries to get past a single area. that does not sound fun, that sounds like the equivalent of being told "you suck" repeatedly until you either give up or finally win and get no reward. the fanbase is a cult following more than anything else, and thats fine. you are allowed to enjoy anything you want, but it does not mean this game is a masterpiece. more often than not people just know it as meme in the vein of "this game is the dark souls of X"
