That is clearly disingenuous though. If it's so shitty would you even care?
This is definitely a response to a thing I said and not a goalpost shift to avoid acknowledging what has actually been written.
I struggle to think of any book, painting, or movie that doesn't exclude someone from experiencing it.
We got braille and audio books, we got closed captioning for the hearing impaired.
Sounds to me like games are being lapped, and moreover if the ability to make that change is there to the detriment of literally nobody, then there's no good reason not to do it.
It's also OK that From don't want to make a tweaked mode. I disagree that their games are made poorly, they are intentionally targeting a certain audience knowing full well it excludes other potential audiences. There's nothing wrong with that.
There is absolutely something wrong with that.
Like, I shouldn't need an example that is sensible to literally everyone of sound moral fiber like "but what about players with disabilities", the fuck y'all so worried about folks you don't know playing Easy Mode for??
There's plenty of literature that's not certainly meant to be enjoyed by novice readers.
I don't exactly see authors rushing to publish spark notes versions of their books.
That sounds like an example wherein I could, theoretically, improve myself to the point where I can read a piece of advanced literature, as opposed to this situation where the mechanical difficulty of this video game, a medium where progress is meted out through the actions of the player, can be stifled by a player who physically cannot perform the same way as large amounts of the audience.
Moreover, if a game can be tweaked in a way a book cannot, that sounds like a leg-up for games more than a reason for them to be held back.
What are you talking about? I reiterated that OP's post is nonsense, an Easy Mode doesn't need a narrative justification. However, even still it doesn't matter because FROM isn't going to make one. So, if you want Easy Mode buy on PC and install trainers. Otherwise, there's nothing else that can be done except try to learn the game.
Schrodinger's Dark Souls.
That sounds like a reason to keep talking about it, then, instead of throwing my hands up.
