Why Souls games shouldn't have an easy or normal mode

It doesn't fit the developers vision, what you get in the end is a completely different game. And that isn't fair to gamers.

Wouldn't it be in the developer's vision if they implemented it by themselves?

Do you know how many compromises developers have to make to their game that people don't know about? What if I told you that the game designers plan actually was to make the game literally so difficult that it wasn't technically possible to beat it. But then some stupid producer stepped in and said the game would have to have an ending, so they had to make it much easier. Haven't heard any outcry against making the game so easy that people can reach the end.

This is such a straw man argument. Hiding behind the proposed intentions of the creator when you know nothing about it. I think I perfectly described the real reason behind the outrage in my first post.

They didn't impelement it yet. Not on the King's Field games and not on the Souls game so I just assume it isn't part of their vision. They have been doing these games for years then how come a stupid producer never stopped them before?

I think they get it. These whole games are made with only one purpose on mind. It's to satisfiy our egos, it's to satisfy our short weenies. And I'm perfectly fine with that. I even think my weenie grew bigger after playing those games... just an inch though.

Which is all I wanted to hear. I respect honesty. What irks me is not that DS is a game for the epeen. What irks me is always people pretending it's not and try to protect their penis with ridiculous claims of developer integrity

DS is a great game and I would love it to be more welcoming to newcomers though. Very similar to fighting games and bullet hell(especially touhou). I feel said that I can't enjoy these games because I'm not up to the task even though I love the story and the visuals of these games. I would love these games to have easier modes and since I'm a selfish bastard I wouldn't mind breaking a few e-penises in the process. But at least I admit that.

I don't hate games, I don't hate developers, hell I don't even hate producers and publishers. I just hate the people who pretend things just to protect their penis.
