Soulslike games aren't enjoyable AT ALL

Listen, I somewhat get the point of them. Failing and determined pulling through the challenge until you beat it feels really rewarding, but those games simply aren't fun.

I see absolutely no, and I mean it when I say it, zero fun in dying every 10 steps you take to some random-ass trap or enemy that spawns outta nowhere or getting pissed off and frustrated at getting killed by a boss a hundred times over and over again. I really don't get the obsession everyone has had recently with these games. They just aren't fun to play and are more annoying and tedious than anything else.

How people can bring the patience and determination with them to see this concept as fun and enjoyable is beyond me, although I do respect and even somewhat envy it. I like challenging games at times as well, but the most important part of a game for me is just plain, stupid fun and distraction from the struggles of everyday life, and soulslike games simply can't deliver that for me.
