What games are hardest to win even on a replay at the same difficulty level?

Have you played any games that were hard for you to beat on a replay, even if you didn’t raise the difficulty?

Bloodborne did a hard one on me when I started playing the game. I had to replay it at least 5 times before I won.

I played Bioshock on Hard the first time, and tried to replay it on medium. The difference is night and day. On lower difficulties, you don't need or have to think about collecting items or special ammo. You don't have to think about laying traps against big daddies, since a few clips of incendiary shotgun shells or grenades will kill them outright. The advantages from cameras are just overkill.

I say that all games that are hard that you never played before is hard 😉

When you have never played it, it's alien to you and it's a naturally difficult game, you will never have it easy no matter how good you're with playing.

Yes, *Dark Souls* and *Celeste* were challenging on replay due to their intricate mechanics and need for precise timing and strategy.

Dark Souls is my pick. The game is unbelievably difficult no matter what difficulty level you play it at.
