All of the Souls games kinda have an easy mode baked in. Ranged weapons/Sorceries generally provide an easier experience. Honestly though, I just find I don't really care if there is an easy mode or not. I enjoyed the challenge and if a difficulty slider was added, it would not have detracted from my experience in the slightest. I played through the games for the challenge and I enjoyed it immensely. If someone else doesn't enjoy the challenge, then that's okay. I'm not going to gatekeep them. We're all SunBro's at our core and I will always drop my Summon Sign for others in need to find
Praise the Sun, my friend
I was getting frustrated in the first dark souls playing a dex melee character because I wanted to be able to dodge quickly and do quick in and out attacks. Making a mistake was so punishing.
But then I tried a heavy build instead and have been surprised at how well it works. Yeah, it's harder to avoid mistakes but you do so much more damage and take so much less that your can afford it. I've even gone kinda barbarian by using heavy weapons and little armor so I'm not stuck with the slowest roll and the fact you can one or two shot most trash mobs still means I was able to progress farther on that character than on my dex one in way less time.
It's not easy but it's easier.
Those gargoyles are rough though.
