Only souls game I beat is Elden Ring. Only by modding an easy mode into the game. I loved exploring in the game, especially the lore without worrying about dying because of my lack of skills.

If anyone says that a souls-like is only fun because of it's difficulty is wrong, at least in my experience.

I don’t mean to gatekeep because boss fights in From Software games are getting ridiculous but I think wandering into dangerous areas and overcoming challenges by cheesing things and even grinding level and gear is part of the charm.

I understand that it is for many. Just not for me. I prefer exploring lands and it's many wonders.
