Look i understand the point you are trying to make here vivster, and yeah you can make the AI dumber less effective in the easy mode and have it be really HARD on the hard mode and then "everyone" could enjoy it.
but the thing is that such a thing is not the vision that the developer has for this game, neither its the reason why the fans like it so much, we like it because we know that if we hit a wall (a really difficult level or boss fight) there is no way we can just go to options to change the difficulty or start the game again and in easy mode, we know that you just have to get good, and we like that feeling of not having options, just the fact of improving yourself in the game, sure you could argue that you could just ignore the easy mode and then everythings fine, but that is clearly not the vision of the developer either, and knowing that you defended or at least understood the "vision" that Ready at Dawn had with the order, i would expect that you would understand that From Software want this game to be known as the "hard" game, and we "the fans" like this hard game and the challenge that it represents.
also i saw that you (or maybe someone else) said that, such a thing was just a very elitist attitude, and that the fans just want to pretend that they are the "best gamers" out there, and as a fan i must say... i would find that attitude very pathetic... i myself have never said or implied something like that and i hope other fans of the series would never do that, because that would just make us look bad... i just simply like the challenge and the vision that from software has with this games.

Come on! In your very OP you said: - im sorry to tell you but if you dont enjoy the challenge then this game is clearly not for you, there are tons of other games out there that could fill youre gaming needs.
If that isn't the very definition of being elitist I don't know what is.
But as I said, an easy mode will not take away the challenge and since that is apparently what you look for in the game I wonder what an easy mode will take away from you or the game.

if enjoying a challenge makes me elitists then so be it, i in no way think that i am a better gamer for doing so, but if thats what you think of it then go ahead.
to youre second argument, i am worried that they will dumb down stuff like the level desing (hidden traps for example, like the floor falling apart, or narrow bridges with traps that could make you fall etc) , i doubt they would change the level design to accomodate two difficulties, but if they can do it then so be it, that is my worry, that they could affect the hard difficutly by having an easy difficulty.
