This is why I have such a soft spot for From Software games. I don’t care if I have to die 30 times trying to cross a bridge it’ll still keep me engaged trying to figure out a way or just mastering the technique rather than play another Assassin’s Creed tailing mission for 30 minutes following some braindead ai.
FromSoft games are my absolute favorite. Seeing myself getting better and mastering a challenge is peak fun to me.
I have a habit of playing those for a few days and then becoming so enraged I put it down for a year. I actually just picked PS3 Demon’s Souls to finally get platinum.
