I played Sekiro with an Easy Mode mod and it was fun as hell

my issue with regular sekiro wasn't really the difficulty, more the way the game really expected you to approach it one way, which was a way i didn't find particularly fun
How about making it even easier so you don't even have to play it lol

but i liked playing it. it's fun, it's right there in the thread title
But then how can you brag that you've beaten a game?! People would need to know all your settings to understand how awesome you actually are.Every single player game should have custom difficulty options. Let people enjoy the game they want.
/s
I fully agree. One of the things Shadow of the Tomb Raider got right, if you wanted more exploration you could tweak the game to get that, if you hated the exploration and wanted action you could tweak the game for that preference as well.
Generally speaking, a dynamic difficulty setting that can be changed at any time usually work out fine, then you can flip it over to easy when you're feeling that you're not actually enjoying the game anymore and just want to get through that extremely difficult area, then you can flip over to normal or hard again afterwards and keep on enjoying the game.
He had fun. That's why some people play games for, crazy right?

he experienced a hollow victory. nothing was risked and nothing was gained. it's sad you don't know the difference
This is what I've said in the past, there is a reason multiplayer games with high skill ceiling are impenetrable to some people. It's because not everyone has the same level of reaction time and thought process, what's medium difficulty for you may be hard for me. It's not really possible to have difficulty in MP games, and reducing the ceiling there affects everyone...not so much in a single player game like Sekiro.
And those who are saying it'd take away tons of resources, these mods are made by one person. Surely From could come up with something more refined without having to spend tons of resources and time. I mean Sekiro already has two difficulties with the bell in the mountain area making the game harder by physically changing properties of enemies, an easier mode doesn't even need to do that and simply has to tweak damage numbers, so it's clear that they are capable of doing more than one difficulty. It's also clear that they are capable of doing different parry timings.
I am in the same boat as OP. I've played and finished all the souls games and Bloodborne and can probably count the number of times I've parried on one hand across all those games. I was really excited about Sekiro but I just did not enjoy the style of the combat at all and found it difficult to adjust. Would be down to try an easy mode where it's a bit more manageable
This was perfect. Could not have been set up any better. Thank you. lmao
More seriously, I just stopped playing. It ended up being what I figured it would be: block block block block stab repeat. It was fun for a good while but then it wasn't.
Everyone should play the game the way they find it the more fun, regardless of the "Author's vision".
It's not the Author who's playing, it's you, so play as you like and enjoy yourself.

I'm 40 years old with a 1 year old child, and this is my best chance to enjoy the story, thanks for sharing OP.
I don't mod often but when I do - I have a great time. Currently, Geralt can run around the map with auto-loot set to max and can clear monster guarded chests without actually having to kill the monster. He is that good at his job. Having an Equipment and Other Shit Encumbrance set to 9000, which of course you can go over naturally in-game, means you can carry everything you auto-pick up. Oils are auto-applied when a fight starts. Oh, and the loot drops from enemies has been buffed so there is more to auto-collect. Geralt is having a whale of a time quite frankly being the Great Rivian Hoover.
If you paid your own money for a game and you are playing it single-player and it has mods - have fun, my friend. Other peoples opinion on that is less than irrelevant.

It's sadder that it bothers you to the point of removing the PC version for everyone. Like how fucking sad is that.
Hey I know you did buddy. As long as you had fun, that's the most important thing. Just like I had fun seeing the cool animations and creepily laughing npcs.
Well in that case I feel sad.
This is becoming quite funny actually.
Nah, don't. Lord knows I don't keep up with all of the jokes either :P
Discussion on these games, for whatever reason, always do
From fanatics getting all salty about this is the gain here. ;P
I want to think yes that he's using a mod on us as well.
It's telling that it is sometimes very hard in this thread to distinguish between people doing the meme and people saying basically the exact same thing (with slightly different wording) but are dead serious.
Me too.
I just don't have the patience or time for such a difficult game.
Put that mod on console (as an option) and i would buy the fuck out of Sekiro......
Well From Software's biggest fans are rather protective of their games so that doesn't quite shock me, albeit his was a word for word repeat of the meme
You Cheated Not Only the Game, But Yourself
You Cheated Not Only the Game, But Yourself refers to a viral tweet made by Twitter user @Fetusberry in which he criticized PC Gamer journalist James Davenport for resorting to cheats to beat the final boss in 2019 video game Sekiro: Shadows Die Twice. Starting in April 2019, the tweet has been...

Meme so everyone stops taking hydrophilic attack seriously.
Lol, wow are you so bad even with "easy mode" on?
Still, congrats on being able to enjoy the game.

I'm glad you found a way to enjoy your purchase. The thing that sucks with digital games is you're stuck with them for better and worse.
I'm certain there's a mod for it now, but on release I just used a trainer for infinite hp. I had an amazing time, go for it.
That's the first thing I thought of when reading this too. Mike "accessibility options are cheats" Matei would be throwing a fit, haha.
Who gives a shit how you played the game. You paid for it and you're not online ruining anyone else's experience. Play it out you see fit and get your moneys worth.
I love Dark Souls trilogy, Bloodborne, Sekiro... I love them to death... But to me, the most fun they are is when you are way too overpowered and just wreck shit.
If FromSoftware were to include an easy mode (just make the ennemy deal less damage, while you make more damage), I would play this mode with absolutely no shame, and I would just say fuck off to anyone who would told me I didn't "play" the game.
Your mod must have been hella fun OP.
There's way, WAY more in those games than just the feeling of overcome difficulty. The ambiance, the feel of the weapons when you hit the ennemies, the design, the world building, the wonderful boss patterns, the music, the level design, the secrets hidden in the levels, the weird ass obscure optional quests... All of this, you can enjoy it with an easy mode.

I disagree. Mods only work for people playing on PC. People playing on consoles are not afforded the same luxury. Everyone's experience when playing a game is already unique to themselves, that's the nature of games. Different graphical options, different languages, different paths chosen, different dialogue options, different items used in fights etc. Giving people more choice is just allowing more people to experience the game in a manner they enjoy it more.
