As someone who is a difficulty enjoyer, my large issue is when people claim that a game is 'fair'. This is patently not true, especially for stuff like fromsoft (especially early fromsoft). Shit clips and glitches out, hit boxes are not where your expect them to be so where to dodge isn't intuitive unless you just know. So it's not 'fair'. It's unfair on purpose.

But half of the fun is figuring out how to break it in such a way that makes it feel like you are being unfair to the game. When you crush the hardest difficulty through understanding and mastery of the mechanics and game knowledge.

Nothing against those who just want to play through something casually though.
