I also think people lacks the gaming mechanics. This an RPG, understanding stats and how to correctly use weapons and make use to the vast mount of options this game gives you is part of the game

ER even purposefully gives you a significant amount of Larval Tears for you to respect whenever I see fit or when you think yqou've hit the wall messing up with your stats spread

I think base game is so expansive that it allows you to easily finish on 160-180 level range, at this point almost "anything goes" really, so many people just brute-force their way to final bosses


Souls games are interesting in a sense you can beat the game with either high skill or high understanding of the gaming mechanics. I've done a test: My roommate who never played Souls before but is an avid RPG player. I simple taught him how stats works, how to increase damage output and how to find good weapons and sorceries

He beat the game effortlessly at level 130. Only boss he had problem (died more than 6 times) was Malenia. This was the proof you don't need skill to beat ER, if you understand the game deeply
