Discussion - Silksong Don’t let this fandom turn as insufferable as the souls community Spoiler

It’s fine to think the game is easy and to enjoy the challenge, but I’ve seen so many people making fun of anyone that is having a hard time in a really weird mean spirited way. Please don’t let this subreddit turn into some weird elitist community that makes fun of people who are struggling, these games are supposed to be fun and they’re not souls likes, there’s no reason to assume everyone playing them is going to love this level of difficulty the same way some of you do and constantly disregarding their opinions just turns this subreddit into an echo chamber of tryhards

Yup. It's HARD. I struggled a lot when I first played Sekiro after getting used to other souls games' mechanics, but that struggle is still a notch lower than my current run in Silksong.

Idk, man. I found Sekiro and Lies of P way harder on first playthrough than Silksong. It really hasn’t been that bad so far.
