      I love rogues, but most soulslike games feel soulless (pun intended). Once in a while we get a great game like Lies of P, but most of the time they are uninspired.

        Honestly all they need to do is create a difficulty selector. That’s the only reason I don’t play souls games.

        Inb4: “gitgud” Yeah that’s kinda my problem. Obviously.

          I agree. These people are such snowflakes. How does an optional easy mode take anything away from them? It doesn’t, yet they cry about it as if I shot their firstborn when I bring it up. Just call it “super mega crybaby loser mode”, maybe that will make them feel better when they pick the “super mega ultra sigma hardcore extreme mode”. Treat them like little children, they will fall for it.

            I disagree. That’s not the game or the experience the devs wanted to make. I don’t think every game needs to be for everyone. There’s always modding if you still want to play a game not designed for you. I don’t think it makes someone a bad person or a “snowflake” for liking a game’s identity and design philosophy to remain consistent. I wouldn’t mind personally if souls games had an easy mode, though I don’t really play them, but I know that fans of the series don’t like the idea, and it’s just not the experience the devs wanted to make. If you don’t like that the devs hold that philosophy, don’t play their games.
