I’ve never played a soulslike games because they are a bit intimidating to me. Amy recommendations for soulslikes games to start on or for beginners to the genre?

I'm pretty used to it at this point. My best friend is a big Souls fan and is one of the many who refers to Elden Ring as the most approachable From game yet as well as Sekiro as possibly the hardest. The comments I'm used to seeing are ones calling X boss the hardest they've ever gone against and those are consistently the easiest for me. Personally, I'm terrible with the bosses that have a wind up for their attacks and make you wait for the timing as opposed to the ones where it's almost pure reflex. If that sounds more your bag then I'd say Sekiro is your thing and you likely won't enjoy DS or ER. Bloodborne is somewhere in the middle, debatably closer to Sekiro though I've seen arguments for both ways.
