Which of these games do you consider to be more challenging and why? It’s hard to choose, but I’m leaning towards Dark Souls considering the learning curve it has.
Both are easy once you understand them

Define “understand.”
I could say, “Soccer is easy once you understand it.” But it isn’t. But it is.
What is the context?

I hate both of them with a passion
dark souls is harder though
classic is just harder on the soul
I haven’t played the soul series (I have only played Sekrio Shadows Die Twice) But i would have to say Dark Souls as you can’t have people help you out every time you get into trouble in Dark Souls like you do in WoW.
Have trouble with a dungeon, group up. Have trouble with a quest, find help. Have trouble with an elite, get help.
Dark souls. Have trouble with a boss. Its all on you.

Dark Souls by a fair margin.

Dark Souls still has things that can trip up veterans, but it takes a lot more time invested to become good at it than it does Classic. Classic just requires time investment for progress - in both PvE and PvP.
When only doing singleplayer things? Dark souls primarily due to it’s hefty chunk of trial and error learning.
In the vein of ‘showing up to raid’ and then ‘raiding’, Dark souls still. Even if you don’t know the mechanics of classic, they’re pretty easy to learn.
Leading a raid? WoW Classic by a large margin. Handling 39 players or more is incredibly difficult. You really gotta flex those muscles to hold on if you’re a guild leader.
Actually, in the Souls games, for most bosses, you can summon NPC’s or other players to help you. It increases the hp of the boss to compensate, but generally makes the fights easier, especially if you can get lucky and summon an experienced player to help.
Praise the sun!
Personally, I’d never play a video game with a name like that. Even if it’s considered highly popular, whomever comes up with the names “Dark Souls” etc, ah mai gawd so cringe.
Aint giving them my money
It’s a very, very important term and name. Just because it’s, “edgy” doesn’t mean it’s not appropriate.
The name dark souls offends an undead rogue, now I’ve heard everything lmao!
Offend? That’s the wrong word to use mate, the name is simply cringe.
Again, the name isn’t edgy lol - it’s just cringe.
May as well name it “Demon Slayers!!!”
The original game was called, “Demon’s Souls”. The name is pretty relevant, as in that game souls were extremely relevant and demons were the ones with the most powerful souls that you needed to kill. And Dark Souls has more heavy emphasis on souls, and on the power of Dark.
It’s also Japanese. They don’t really care about it being, “cringy” when it’s a very good game.
Are you being serious ? Those game’s are not comparable .
once you understand the controls how the bosses move what you need to do to beat the game you know once you understand it.
I didn’t know that. Sekrio was my introduction to From Software games and i haven’t gotten around to trying souls or bloodbourne yet. Doing a critical mode runs on my KH games first. Still I just assumed it was similar in the fact that if i was having an issue like on a boss like Issian the Sword Saint i was left to figure out his patters on my own lol. (His spear phase sucks)
I’ve never heard this complaint over ds.
Soul’s games difficulty is overstated.
It’s just a matter of accepting that you will die a lot and need to be patient.
Your missing out, judging by just title really? Its the 100% best game ever made, dark souls 3 is even better with the fastest gameplay. And it’s not “edgy”, its part of the lore. There existed darkness and dragons, one day a hollow with “the dark soul” gave birth to fire and humanity took control of their world from the dragons and since then the world is stuck between darkness and fire as you choose to either keep the flame going and humanity alive, or darkness. It’s a must play.
The reason people love or hate is because its a game focused around clearing very detailed levels and boss fights that are truly epic.
Just some advice…Sekiro IS NOT like Dark SoulS or BB, the gameplay differs completely as far as combat and controls. DS and BB are focused around rolling to dodge(invincibility frames), while Sekiro you counter mechanics.
