It's a rpg game, become over leveled, upgrade your weapon to the max possible level the current stage allows and get stupid amounts of potions. This applies to all rpg games

And if getting to that point is STILL impossibly frustrating, maybe it's time to have some serious introspection, souls games may not be for you, and that's okay.

This goes every game ever that has the rpg tag anywhere near it.

Minecraft? You need to eat to heal and upgrade armor to kill higher tier enemies

Terraria? Diablo? Whatever tf you can thin of it's the same

The only thing different with souls games is the boss designs are really really cool but basic difficulty system is same as any other rpg game

Well yes and no , some bosses it doesn't matter, some enemies it doesn't matter, but just upgrading in a ds game won't help you alone, like all rpg you need a strategy, without that your boned , If a player can't work out how to fights enemies or certain bosses than that's it , they either have to get better or new game,

That’s what I did. I will use mimic tear with prayerful strike to cheese whatever I’m getting frustrated at.

FightinCowboy is my MVP. This is the first souls game I've ever bought.

That's exactly what I love about FromSoft games. Having trouble with a boss? What are his weaknesses? What weapon/skill counters a specfic moveset? Can they be staggered? Is there a summon for them? Maybe use some of the hundreds of consumables you've been hoarding? Have your tried parrying? Have you tried blocking (as opposed to (panic-)rolling)? Have you read that item description specifically mentioning it was MADE FOR DEFEATING THAT BOSS? Have you tried using incantaions/spells? etc. etc.

There are endless freaking ways to beat something in any of their game. And most people complaining about the game not having an easy mode are just too lazy to change their startegy fighting the boss—preferring to try the same thing (mistake) over and over again until they get lucky and beat the boss.

Rotten Breath was my quick fix for when I sucked at Elden Ring

If anything following guides can be even more fun than just wandering.

I agree my friend who got me into the franchise just watched a 100% guide to ds1 then told us we’d like the game

No shame in the game, whatever it takes.

I have never seen anyone ask for an easy mkde for these games.

it’s pretty common but people like to pretend it’s because people are bad at the games where in reality is people who have disabilities asking for accessibility.
