8. Dark Souls/Bloodborne

The obvious choice for anything like this - for as much as there's always an army of people who'll spring out the ether to proclaim that the Soulsborne games "aren't really hard", let's just say they're wrong, and move on.

What FromSoftware perfected with their mix of restricted player movement, agile enemies and animation prioritising attacks, was an ethos behind gameplay that demands you re-approach everything you think you know about action games.

It's absolutely the case that you can become one with this unique ebb and flow - such a sense of synergy is why millions of people proclaim Soulsborne titles as the best of the best - but overcoming that wall of progress really does take time, patience and perseverance.
