On the flip side, I don't understand why people like playing video games that just tell a story and pretty much spoon feed every victory to the player. It feels hollow and incredibly boring.

You know there's a middle ground, right? There exist games that manage to balance difficulty in a way that gives players a consistent challenge that they're just able to overcome. The best games have these things called "difficulty settings" that let you customize that challenge so that you can decide how hard you want it to be

I will agree with that sentiment somewhat. I don't play games on easy either, that's boring. I don't mind dying a few times to a boss. It's the soul crushing difficulty of Souls games I don't enjoy. 17 deaths in, and i still have barely cracked half health of some bosses. Not my cup of tea.
