I played the game, new game+ and a third round for a  bit until I got bored. And I don't get the fuss about changing difficulty. I got stuck a couple of times, didn't give up but unlike you I didn't get a sense of achievement, only a sense of wasted time before I could get on with exploring again. I don't care about tests or compliments anymore, I know what I like and what I don't, just let me enjoy the game the way I want to? What does it take away from your experience if there is an option to skip a boss or lower the difficulty temporarily?

I still don't like the Capra Demon, Ornstein and Smogg, the 4 kings and the bed of chaos. Annoying encounters that only took away from fun game time for me, no sense of achievement whatsoever after finally beating them. Also the reason I didn't bother with the DLC, having to go through those again.

Orstein and Smogg is best fought with a summoned player/npc, so its a 2v2 fight.

Capra Demon fights trick is being aware of your surroundings (The stairs leading to the ledge).

4 Kings is basically a race against the clock, kill each king before the next one spawns.

Bed of Chaos is an environment puzzle which is the only one I understand people disliking.

 

Ornstein and Smogg is one of the best boss fights I've ever played.  It was the hardest part of the game for me and took a long time to beat.  Looking back on it i would say it was one of the most fun parts of the game for me and wouldn't change a thing about it.
