I had a good 2020 with regards to challenging games - if I were to pick the hardest things I did this year they'd be:
Bloodborne
Defiled Chalice bosses. I think I spent more time with Orphan of Kos but these were the most challenging bosses for me in terms of frustration. I think the dog takes the cake.
Sekiro
Final boss, basically emptied out my inventory of any item that would give me health or resurrection. Still don't think I can do this more than once.
Cuphead
The dice boss. I'm no good at boss rushes (with just three hits!) and the final segment is tough to boot. This was tougher for me than the robot.
Hollow Knight
I just did this today, so recency bias: Pantheon of the Knight. Oof...
