Would you prefer if games had a separate difficulty setting for boss fights? (self.games)

I usually play games on "normal" difficulty these days, for a balanced challenge. However, I don't particularly enjoy boss fights, or at least I don't enjoy the extra challenge associated with them. Was thinking it would be nice if games had a separate setting so I could just set boss fights to "easy", while not making the rest of the game less challenging as well.

You could just do more research before buying a game at full price and being mad that the game isn't for you. If you want a story those games aren't for you. There's more story in YouTube videos about the game than what's actually upfront in the game. I understand being upset at a bad purchase but adding a difficulty slider is counter to the developers intent and thus not made for you.
