Really depends what your looking for in games. As a gamers we have gotten way more skilled then before for example last time I played resident evil 4  which was my favorite game of all time. I almost fell asleep because how it easy it was and I was playing on hard mode. Compared to the remake which is much more challenging and fun to me now on hardcore mode. Same for Mario World it's a cake walk for anyone playing mario games since nes, it has to have thr right balance of challenge, and using strategy and exploration for me to think the game is great.

I would actually say games have generally gotten easier over time in order to appeal to a wider audience and make more money. Rising development costs in particular have driven a lot of games to broaden their demographic reach and lower the bar for entry. Not that this in inherently a bad thing, it just is what it is.

In case of Nintendo games yes but incase of Sony and fromsoftware absolutely not. I'm being honest here in the 7th gen I couldn't find any game that was AAA really challenging. Assassin's Creed for example beautiful location and amazing world for its time but the combat was one of the saddest things in gaming. Uncharted was easy as heck as well and just boring shooting. All Sony games 8th gen offer difficulty setting that have a really good balance imo. Fromsoftware 8th gen Also finally has games that dont like crap with so much jank
