Wholeheartedly disagree, these are the same arguments levied against the souls games and yet, it's that opaqueness and steep learning curve that created such a tight knit and engrossing community. Arguably, some of the best games ever made.
Takes like this is what gives soulslike players a reputation of condescending elitist gatekeepers. They don't even have a steep learning curve, early souls games are just janky in how they teach the player the basics.
There it is lol
