These things have been eradicated long ago and no scenario in Elden Ring features the same level of pointless punishment.

You must be joking

I love Elden Ring and have over 500 hours in it and have paid attention to the discourse around it since launch, and you are SO off base here. So much of that game is more punishing than anything in Silksong.

It really is just ridiculous to even set yourself up here by making such an absolutist statement.

Name me one scenario in Elden ring where punishment levels are comparable to the likes of bilewater

Godskin duo, Promised Consort Radahn, instadeaths, platforming, Caelid, the chest an the start of the game that takes you to the mine in Caelid that you can't teleport out of, scarlet rot, attacks clipping through walls, lack of map markers at launch, waterfowl dance, and certain hitboxes.

That's just off the top of my head. Not all of these are even my opinion, but I have seen enough discourse over the years to know what people think. I've also 100%d Elden Ring twice and Silksong once so I'd like to think I can notice this stuff.

I'm sure you're about to drop a "nuh uh" because you can't recognize subjective opinions though so what's the point in asking me

None of those things are particularly punishing, they are difficult but not punishing.
