| vivster said: Making a game difficult is the easiest thing in the world. Especially when it's inconsequential stuff like health or stamina bars. There is absolutely no reason for a game to not have an easy mode when it also has a hard mode. That's called choice. An easy mode doesn't take anything away from people who play the hard mode. |
Monster Hunter isn't hard for people to get into because of health and stamina it's hard for newcomers to get into because they don't want to do the grind to become better and improve their skill and gear. A easy mode affecting health and stamina negates the point of getting better gear, items and abilities that can be applied as a hunter improves their resources, this kills a lot of the appeal in the series while adding very little incentive for new players to stick around.
MH is not strictly about hunting targets but also the grind to become a well resourceful hunter to be able to take on progressively stronger targets, an easy mode removes that appeal while adding little because the are already missions in game to ease people into the game.
