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

We're just gonna have to disagree there; people naturally experience difficulty differently.

I found a lot of 7th gen games gave a very satisfying challenge; Monster Hunter Tri, Sin & Punishment Star Successor, Bayonetta, Dragon's Dogma, (another new IP I forgot to mention) Donkey Kong Country Returns, etc.
