I beat ninja gaiden on master ninja mode  and it doesn't come close being as hard as souls imo. DMC is not really challenging at all these days it was probably your first action game at the time. obviously i can't try every game but in terms of AAA games with actual scope and budget they are much more challenging these days.

We will have to agree to disagree.  I think games have gotten pretty significantly easier each generation and souls has it's difficulty grossly overrated.  Still an amazing franchise, but history is littered with dozens and dozens of harder games.  

Most of these games were extremely linear, low budget and ugly graphics this is why i said AAA gaming now is more challenging. I'm sure you can find a ton of indie game that are extremely challenging as well. i'm talking about games with mass appeal and descent  budget.

You can look at many publications  lists for difficult games  almost all have sekiro/souls as most challenging games in the top 5 and many games from 8th gen.

Found a nice sample here most challenging games of all time with 33k votes and sekiro gets number 1. Most votes in the top 10 are 8th gen votes.
