Is Silksong more difficult than Elden Ring?

Difficulty between Silksong and Elden Ring is subjective and depends on player preference, but generally, Elden Ring offers more ways to mitigate challenge (leveling, summons, exploration), making it easier to overcome through grinding, while Silksong demands greater consistent mechanical skill, reflexes, and focus, with less opportunity to overlevel, often feeling more punishing for mistakes, though some find its bosses fairer due to clear patterns. Elden Ring can have steeper initial hurdles and instant-kill mechanics, but Silksong demands precision in its 2D combat and platforming, with long boss runbacks being a significant frustration for many.
