Just make it a difficulty option.

Story Normal Hard Dynamic

I see the appeal, but also there's a reason why people pick their difficulty level, both ways. People that want a bit of low challenge game time to decompress don't need a game that gets harder, and Dark Souls players that need high challenge game time to recompress don't need a game that panders to them and cheapens their victory.

One thing I really hate is games that go "Hey you died x times, do you want to try a lower difficulty?"

Fuck off game it's a boss battle and I've been aware of how to change the difficulty in a game since 1997

You won't if you're always playing on the lowest difficulty (not that there's anything wrong with that)
