So many good recommendations here .. but I would also add the Witcher 3. I am about 75 hours in and not even halfway through the main story. There is SO much to do, and the side quests are just as fun as the main story.

And there was nothing concerning to you about what hasan has platformed on his stream? Like genuinely? I was a fan of Hasan as well, and it took a lot for me to finally see who he is, so I get that it’s hard. Even if you take Ethan out of the equation, Hasan isn’t a good guy.

.. how is this a smear campaign? It’s literally clips from hasan’s stream. No lies were told. Ethan isn’t perfect, but trying to defend hasan here is extremely embarrassing. Though I’m going to assume you didn’t actually watch the whole video.

It’s not about adding difficulty. Sekiro has a pause button and it’s equally as hard. You can always sit at the bonfire and walk away if you need to. There’s no pause button on multiplayer games (obviously) and no one complains. Dark souls is technically a multiplayer game.

There are so many aspects to the game to make it as easy/hard as you want. For example, you can summon for most boss fights. You can also farm for hours and basically two shot most bosses.
