Does dying in Dark Souls make it harder?

There's no world tendency in this game, so that does not happen in dark souls. The only thing that happens when you die and go hollow is that you can't summon other players to help you and your curse resistance is lower. You also can't kindle bonfires.

Does Dark Souls get harder the more you die?

No... that doesn't happen. The only thing is you lose your souls and humanity (but you can retrieve it unless you die again). Humanity gives a small defence bonus so maybe that's where you got this idea from?

What are the consequences of dying in Dark Souls?

You lose souls that you've collected from defeating enemies & bosses. However, they can be recovered if you go to the spot where you previously died. If you die while getting to that spot, those souls are gone forever. You also lose patience & time when you keep dying to the same boss. :D.
