I love how you clarify that its known for being hard.
Agreed. Deserves it and more, to me this is one of the best franchises of the last decade. I think the fact that its "hard" overshadows its other many virtues. To this day Bloodborne remains one my favorite games of the gen.
Every single Fromsoftware game has been good, even Sekiro, which I personally didnt enjoy as much as DS due to its more rigid gameplay, but I can recognize it still has great values in it. Im very much looking forward to Elden Ring.
