Either literally horror games that were too scary to play, or games that were intimidating/overwhelming to a degree where you were like...fuck this.
I can think of 4 games that did this for me: World of Warcraft, back when this was THE MMO. I missed the boat on this game because when it came out it was peak university time and I had friends who were in danger of dropping out because of this game. It didn't seem normal at all the way people played that. Path of Exile. I really want to give this another shot but i got into a real slow level grind around level 35 and I think I fucked up my build. In general I find ARPGs difficult to get into because of the grind and because of the community and their weird acronyms. Dark Souls. I keep meaning to give it another shot, and maybe I will. I mean I loved Hollow Knight and the same principles apply. Most recently, Factorio. I really enjoyed it, but once I saw the enormity of the task in front of me I had to put it down after 2 nights. I was looking up youtube tutorials and every single one was over an hour long made by a literal engineer who had sunk 3000+ hours into the game. --- CE's Resident Scotsman. https://imgur.com/ILz2ZbV ...

It isn't the entire reason, but Amnesia being fucking terrifying is part of the reason I didn't finish it.

Blood borne, cool game but way too difficult and intense for me I haven't played it but that's interesting because I have people say it's like Dark Souls for people that want an easier game. Or is that just the usual dark souls fans being goobers about game difficulty --- CE's Resident Scotsman. https://imgur.com/ILz2ZbV ... Copied to Clipboard!

when I was about 13, I remember playing the first Resident Evil, and when you come across that cinematic of the zombie eating one of the STARS members, and it looks at you, I immediately "noped" out

Also, I'm pretty sure they were just screwing with you. I think most Souls players consider BB the hardest one tbh. It's easily the fastest paced at least. Never played Demon Souls, but from easiest to hardest for me I think it's DS2 > DS1 > DS3 > BB --- Regardless of warnings, the future doesn't scare me at all. This is where the fun begins. ...

there's a bit of advice i could give you about dark souls that will instantly make the difficulty a lot more manageable.

your HP bar is the game's built-in difficulty slider. level vit.
in the early days of dark souls there was a lot of this mentality where leveling HP meant you were bad at the game. i think there's still a guide on here that refers to them as 'fuck up' points. i think a lot of the 'this game is sooooo hard!' dialogue came from that. --- ... Copied to Clipboard!

No, but a few convinced me to put-off playing them due to persistent talk of unreasonable difficulty or game-play.

I guess also XCOM: Enemy Unknown.
at the time, I wasn't familiar with strategy games, and the whole thing about permadeath of your squad mates, missing shots at 100% accuracy, and having to micromanage resources so that countries won't leave the union (or whatever you call it) deterred me from playing any further. --- b-bb-box https://imgur.com/8D3HM7e - by Proofpyros ...

I never considered it "Dark Souls Hard", you just need to be sure of your decisions.

The endless stairs scared me when I was five so much I didn't play SM64 for years. Oh fuck, this reminded me that I was scared of dying in OoT for years. Like, just the boulder to get the fucking Kokiri Sword made me want to run away. It was a massive jump in "realism" from 2D sidescrollers, enough to empathize with the humanoid model expressing pain. --- formerly evening formerly guide https://youtu.be/Acn5IptKWQU ...
