Revisiting: Difficulty vs Accessibility - A responsibility for the developers, not for the players.

[SvennoJ]

My opinion hasn't changed, options are always better.


I'm enjoying Streets of Rage 3 on easy and normal mode.

I'm enjoying Beat Saber on Expert with a lot of stages at higher speed. (I've tried expert+ yet it involves too many moves where the move controllers cross quickly in front of each other causing glitches in the tracking)

I'm enjoying the tutorials in KSP but also enjoy trying out things myself. For example re-entry with a craft that's not designed for re-entry, somehow managing to keep the command pod intact (with the rest blowing up), have the kerbal jump out at 5km and make a 'safe' splash landing slowing down just enough with the maneuvering jet pack.

I still haven't started Bloodborne and will continue to avoid games without difficulty options.
A game should get me interested in taking on a challenge, not force me into it, nor frustrate me with zero fun repetition.
