Tell GR: Do You Enjoy Difficult Games Like Nioh and Dark Souls?

I just spent the last week beating my head against the wall while playing Nioh. I must have died at least 150 times on my way to completing the game. If it wasn't a boss smashing me on the floor, it was a group of enemies cornering me in a room, or a deadly trap. In hindsight it was a painful experience, but even then I found my experience with Nioh to be great. I might have repeated certain sections and battles more than a dozen times, but always felt immense satisfaction when I was finally successful.

Though, there are times when I don't feel like playing a challenging game, in which case something like Nioh sounds like a nightmare.
