4. "I Like Hard Games, But This Is Too Much"
There's something about the way affronting and frankly brutal way the Souls and 'Borne games present themselves that just seems to straight-up annoy people more than anything else. Whereas there's
a slew of titles with reputations urging you to stay away if you've not got the stones, FromSoftware's games seem to get indulged in by the same crowd of maniacs who like things like the stupidly unforgiving likes of 1001 Spikes or Rogue Legacy; except somehow everything is 'worse' when its a third-person action RPG. Sorry, but you can't have it both ways. It's fine to not be a fan of something in a purely subjective sense, but when the hypocrisies of "Well it's okay when this other game does defined play-styles, steep learning curves and unforgiving difficulty spikes, but not here" crop up, it makes you wonder exactly how and where certain gamers draw the line.
