My first soulsborne game was Bloodborne and is still my favorite of the FromSoft series with Elden Ring just behind it. Playing Lies of P has seriously reminded me of when I first played Bloodborne and so it probably gets special bonus points just for that. Now I just have to wait until Friday for Lords of the Fallen!
The people who like these games generally don’t get angry the same way you do (probably). I’ve died 30+ times to bosses before and felt disheartened. But the rush from the win makes it feel worth it.
I honestly didn’t mind dying to tough regular enemies. But the bosses were other worlds difficult. I can die 5-6 times without getting upset. After that, it gets rage inducing.
