Are the Soulsborne games really hard, or do games today hold your hand so much that they just seem really hard by comparison?

Now, don’t misunderstand. I’m not saying the games are easy, but I do think their difficulty is overstated. Once you learn a boss’s patterns, they’re not THAT hard.

What do you think?
