    I played Dark Souls 3 in 2018. I spent over an hour trying to beat the first boss, and then asked my friend for help.

    He told me it’s not the first boss, just a tutorial. I had never played one of those games before or since then.

      My first souls game was DS3 too. The tutorial boss probably killed me more than any other boss in that game, with one exception near the end. I really struggled with it. I finally did see that game to the end though, and eventually got really into the rest of the FromSoftware games too. When I revisited DS3 a few years ago and did a new playthrough, I was amazed how easy the tutorial boss felt. It was crazy. That’s the fun part of Dark Souls, you get so much better at the game by the end and when you go back to replay you realize just how far you came. Old challenges are like a walk in the park.
