I've beaten tons of Souls-like games (including just about all of FromSoftware's games since Demon's Souls), and at first, I did not think I was ever going to get the hang of this. I couldn't get past the second level for a few days. It took me maybe a week before it started really clicking. Eventually, I started getting good and was able to beat the game only dying 3 times or so.
It's a very fun game, as long as you really do put in the time to get the hang of it. They've added some options to make it a little easier for people, while still maintaining a good challenge. Those options didn't exist when I played it.
DealLabs has this listed as one of the "free" games for March 2024. Their predictions are usually correct.

edit: looks like they do refunds if it's been 14 days and haven't played it yet

This game could not be anymore different from Ghost of Tsushima. It's apples to oranges. It's a totally different play style, and it's a straightforward linear level-based game. It's also very hard. Dark Souls hard. Harder, maybe. At least at first. Once you get the hang of it, if you get the hang of it, it gets much more manageable. When you die, you age. The older you get, the stronger you get, but the less health you have. Eventually you get too old and permanently die. You also have to keep saving up coins to permanently unlock skills. It's a roguelike game, so you lose your skill progress if you don't permanently upgrade it before getting game over or beating the game (it's meant to be played through multiple times). Your age also carries over each level.

So no, 3 games most likely.
I like Sifu, it's a bit convoluted for me to figure out what exactly I'm supposed to be doing, and I don't mind roguelikes. It just seemed kinda all over the place for me. The combat is incredibly good though;
