Difficulty wise! Sure it could be similar. You just keep dying and dying till you get frustrated. But hey, both games are completely different Hellblade is not an RPG, also there are no items what so ever here. It's a very unique experience, kind of a love/hate relationship at times. Sometimes you want to throw the keyboard right at the screen in anger, while other times, you are in awe at the immersive atmosphere and graphic design. The game is indeed something to check out and experience by yourself. Very unique in all aspects.

Thanks @christina.red I am not into easy games so this sounds great thanks for the explanation.

@simonjay, Sorry for the late response, however I have been trying out Hellblade and as a dark souls fan this is considered a VERY EASY game. They mention in the beginning that dying too many times can result in a total reset, a loss of all your progress. However it seems this does not happen that fast. Make your choice wisely. Its a fun game, really enjoyed it, but far from challenging.

Thanks very much for sharing @matthijsw while the difficulty would be a shame for me as I prefer dark souls difficulty the main character and world as me interested enough to give it a try.
