@widgetbeck@CHOO7EN@DarkSoulsGame Besides who says every game needs to appeal to everyone at the cost of the developers vision? Sure the difficulty isn't the only great part of the game but it enhances the lore and atmosphere even more if you struggle. Sure more will play it but they won't play the intended game.
@widgetbeck@CHOO7EN@DarkSoulsGame When I first played ds I would've chosen an easy mode but I'm glad it didn't have one as I enjoyed it so much more when I overcame an obstacle by "gitting gud" I still would have enjoyed the game sure, but I would never have enjoyed it as much as I did.
@widgetbeck@DarkSoulsGame An easy mode would still ruin it. The best part of these games is overcoming huge challenges, it gives a big sense of accomplishment miyazaki even said the games wouldn't have the same effect he wanted if it wasn't for the difficulty. An easy mode would ruin the experience.
