    Easy mode ftw. I’ve only got so much free time. I wanna chill when I’m gaming.

      You don’t want to spend twenty hours trying to beat one boss, and being told to git gud whenever you ask for advice on the internet? But think of the sense of pride and accomplishment you’ll feel when you finally beat it! The best part is you get to go through this like 10 times

      I am playing Sekiro with a easy mode mod.

      Even with being able to kill everything with 1-4 hits, I was getting TRASHED by bosses. People play this without the mod? 😭

        You need to understand the absolute bliss of finnally beating that fucking ape, after hours of trying only for you to decapitate him, then the arm reaches over and picks up the head for the second health bar. Do you know what the reward is after days of attempts? 20 minutes later, you fight two at once, and you’ll do it like it was stomping a goomba in Mario Brothers.

        It’s a difficult game for sure. Probably the most difficult out of the FromSoft games. Not to feed into the meme but the game does click once you get to a certain boss in the game. The combat feels natural, you know what to do and how to do it usually etc. It’s a really difficult game and the final boss might just be the most difficult I’ve ever had the displeasure of fighting against (they get a lot easier once you know what you’re doing)

          Yes it’s a choice, but there need to be games that are difficult for that choice matter.

          Many hard modes are just bullet sponges and extra grinding.

          Where else can we find difficult games that are meant to be difficult in every aspect and not just a tacked on mode with larger health numbers?

          That’s what souls games are. If you want an easy mode play ER or a different game. Not every game is designed for you.

          The choice existing would impact how players play, which may also go against the artistic vision. You don’t have to play a non-chill game.

          You can also choose to play a game designed to be easy. A game like hotline Miami on “chill mode” is not the same as the actually hard hotline Miami.

          If you want to just walk from cut scene to cut scene just watch someone else play the game.
