I strongly dislike the Souls genre so TOTK wins by default, though it's also just a great game in its own right with insanely impressive technology and depth of gameplay, a huge amount of content, and a ton of charm.

Why?  Just curious, not sparking a debate.  My 2 cents, the games are not that hard, just counter intuitive.  Like blocking is a waste of time, getting distance between a boss and the character is a waste of time, etc.  Once you figure out the games just play different, they really aren't that hard.  I always thought the difficulty was grossly exaggerated.  I can easily solo all those games through NG+4 and comparative to NES hard, the games are super easy, though still harder than many modern games.  But Souls, in terms of difficulty, have nothing on Zelda II, Ghosts + Goblins, Contra, etc.  

It's just not my cup of tea, I have poor reflexes and hand-eye coordination so I'm no good at hard games, and I get easily frustrated which to me is one of the worst feelings imaginable.

Also, I deal with an insane amount of stress in my daily life, and I game to unwind and relax, so i prefer to play easier games.
