I remember playing Ninja Gaiden Black on Xbox and it wrecked my face on the very first boss. It took me forever to realize that I was just relying on the dodge button when there was also a block button. Eventually, I got the hang of it and learned which attacks should be dodged and which should be blocked. This skill carried over to other games. Twenty years later it seems like a basic rule of hack n' slash games to me. I've walked up to a certain boss in DMC4 and no-hit beat him on the first try because "Oh he's just like Doku from Ninja Gaiden!". At first a game mechanic seems impossible or too hard. Then eventually you look back on it and go, "What was the big deal? This is easy now." And that happens countless times in difficult games like Hollow Knight. By the end of it you're a different player. And that personal growth is 100 times more enjoyable than walking through the game on easy mode. 

Anyway the point of this thread was to point out that people that install that mod are only robbing themselves. Go play something else.
