The way people talk about it makes it sound like it is markedly not fun.

Yes. The fun is in overcoming the enemies and bosses. Everything is telegraphed so you don't need to be super skilled. You just need to respond correctly to the attacks. Now that said some games (not Dark Souls) actually require some pretty intense manual dexterity as well. Sekiro is definitely one of those. Dark Souls you can do a tank build and summon a bunch of people to help if something is too hard. Sekiro you just have to literally get good. Memorization alone won't save you in that game.

Yes, but I don't like Soulslikes/clones a whole bunch. Nioh I tolerated, but the enemies and bosses are pretty meh. They're also pretty replayable with the different kind of builds and weapons you can use. Sekiro has no real build variety or multiplayer, so the fun for me lied entirely in the gameplay which is pretty great.

I really wish I could enjoy similar games because there's a whole genre that I feel like I could be missing out on.

I just started replaying Bloodborne and the experience is still more fun than any new game I have played in the last year or so. Also, seems a lot easier as I originally played Bloodborne first then the Dark Souls trilogy. Now none of them seem that hard other than a boss now and then.

They don't look it to me.
They look controller snappingly annoying.

And that scares off some people, but if a person hangs in there, it's great.

It's fairly significant for whatever the first game you play is. Afterwards, it's easier to deal with in each game because you're aware of what the mechanics are and what they're asking of you.

Depends on what kind of a gamer you are
Do you like working for everything? Do you like the feeling you get when you finally accomplish something after 4 hours of continuous failing? Are you the quitting type when the going gets tough?

How old you gotta be before you realize fun is completely subjective? I feel like you're probably pass that age.
