These days, I'm not sure. Either Normal or Easy. I think it depends on the genre, what defines my interest in the game, if the game has systems that allow bad players to overcome skill barriers (e.g. leveling up/grinding), how frequent/punishing deaths are, and my baseline skill. I'm sure there's a pattern to which games I jump into on Easy versus which ones I stay on Normal, but I'm not conscious of it at the moment.
