I feel like souls games are the exception. The game is about the cycle of dying and reviving, and the progress you make isn't in game, but in game knowledge. You might not like it, but it's kind of the theme of the game.
And if you really want to experience those games, DKS1 has a really easy to perform soul dupe that will make you overpowered as hell in no time. Then you can enjoy the game. It's cheating, sure, but so is asking for an easy mode in a game it's not intender for, at least for me, and I'm totally okay with cheating when I don't want to do the full experience. In single player games, ofc.
