How to play Elden Ring on easy mode? (lemmygrad.ml)

Yes, I know what I'm asking is basically sacrilege in the 'Soulsborne' community but I've played quite a few Souls games and I am kind of over the whole 'challenging myself' thing. Part of the reason I was originally drawn to the Souls franchise was the difficulty but now I just want to play Fashion Souls with a cool-ass character in a cool-ass world doing cool-ass shit. The game has so much lore and such a beautiful world and just so much creativity in general that the difficulty seems like a distraction from enjoying it.

I've heard using summons is a good way to alleviate some of the difficulty. Are there any other effective ways?

first of all, fuck all the git gud crowd. im team game.should have a easy mode and a hardcore mode to keep this people busy.

as for elden ring, the game itself begs you to be exploited, summons, insane arts and etc...

if you are looking to cheat, use cheatengine and give yourself infinite runes to level up and buy itens from the npcs

Git gud crowd are firmly in the top three worst groups of G*mers, with minmaxers and no-fun brigade (often they are the same people since all three overlaps heavily), fuck them, they actively ruin games. Games are supposed to have difficulty levels.

Yes! I still enjoy a challenge but if a game has many other attractive gameplay elements, I may just want to enjoy everything else
