It should be illegal to introduce any enemy or challenge where you perform perfectly and then you lose through cutscene bullshit (hexbear.net)

At least Sekiro has a fake forced loss and then no real forced loss, I'm pretty sure.

Bloodborne also has sort of an interesting approach where it has elements predicated on you dying once by a certain point but you can just not die.

And even with Seath, at least the death is to set up being in jail, which I think is cool even if handled clumsily. That's something else Bloodborne improves on.
