The point is I get frustrated, then I get better. There’s stakes, and every time I get a little better. I see the next phase of the boss, then it takes me multiple tries to get to that stage again. Then suddenly, nearly every time I’m getting to that phase in seconds

This game isn’t hard for the sake of being hard, it’s hard because it repeatedly gives you a new challenge that seems impossible, and if you have the will to keep pushing you can overcome it. Not through luck, you just learn the patterns, and you adapt your combat style

And once you surpass a challenge, it feels like an accomplishment. The world opens up, you’re rewarded with new exploration and abilities
