Elden Ring's developers know most players use guides, but still try to cater to those who go in blind: 'If they can't do it, then there's some room for improvement on our behalf' (www.pcgamer.com)

I'm in my 40s and I barely made it through a bunch because before playing I hadn't gamed in a decade, this was my first souls-like, and I'm honestly just not that good.

I never summoned. I only played online long enough to do the white mask quest. I was proud of what I did and very happy with my 100% achievements.

That being said, I wouldn't begrudge someone turning the difficulty down if it were available. I see anything that allows more people to enjoy it as a win.
