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?

Yeah I think after playing Dark Souls games with the mindset of having to beat bosses and enemies "the right way" I forgot that there's so many tools to use to cheese. There's no need to put imaginary constraints on myself
