if it makes you feel better, most of the bosses from that point on aren't really hard. The only really bad ones are gwynn/artorias/4 kingsgod damn. so after 70 odd tries over a week I beat Orstein and Smough . ended up just doing it alone as I couldn't be bothered going back to depths to farm more humanity
as with all things dark souls once i actually just calmed down and went slowly it got easier , still a prick of a thing though
