The Evil Within can eat shit. You had to beat the game a minimum of three times to get Platinum, and that's only if your first run was done on no upgrades. If you played normally the first time, it takes four runs.

If the story's any good, it'd feel better as a reward you get after getting through a difficult part of the game. Just tediously plowing through a complete non challenge to see what happens seems pointless. Why not just look the game up on Youtube then? It takes roughly the same effort.

I remember playing a game that did this a long time ago, can't remember the name, just that it (probably) was a JRPG and it made me furious and every time I played the game I was enraged.

>>323504403
I actually only play on easy on repeat playthrough when I just want to blast through the game again. That or in very select instances when I don't want to be too bothered by a game, sometimes I end up enjoying the game more than I thought and regretting setting it to easy halfway.

new order on uber is boring as fuck. It takes away everything that's great about the game (over the top action, dual wielding fucking shotguns and massacre nazis) and forces you to stay in cover and pop up for headshots. You literally die in a few hits and the entire game slows down to a crawl.

New Order was easy as fuck. Can't imagine what the easiest difficulty was like. Played through the game on second highest difficulty but could have probably managed the hardest setting without too much trouble.

I wouldn't say that developing good A.I is a challenge, more that developing fair, challenging A.I is a challenge.
Lots of games just resort to letting the A.I cheat and do things like read your button inputs. Developers don't want to make A.I this ridiculously good, and aren't skilled enough to gimp it just enough so that it's fair, but hard.

I beat it on Uber and I'm a shit at FPS, it's really just about finding the best places to go in any given firefight, staying on the move, and being stealthy where possible.

The only really annoying bits are the part at the helipads at the very end of the chapter where you get the LaserKraftWerk and the last fight on the submarine with all those fucking shotgun guys. The shotgun guys are the worst.

Killer Instinct (SNES, not reboot)

There was a difficulty slider from 1 (Easiest) to 8 (Hardest). Only 4 (Default/Normal) and up allowed you to view individual character endings; otherwise, you just got a message from the devs telling you to get gud and try again on a harder difficulty.

Wolfenstein: The New Order is a great game. Everybody should play it. It's a shooter for people who loves shooters and it's got a great story. I haven't played all the way through it but I've loved everything about it.... except for this screen.

Why is this even here? What is even the point of having this kind of super-easy mode if you're going to insult anybody that might actually want to pick the easiest mode? Is this a joke difficulty that's so easy that bullets don't actually hurt you or something? I know it's a reference to earlier games in the series, but it would have been just as weird back then, too. The imagery only seems appropriate if you are designing a mode that is actually designed for a baby to play! (Note: Babies should not play Wolfenstein: The New Order).

I don't know of too many other games that do this, but Ninja Gaiden Black is somewhat infamous for its "Ninja Dog" difficulty that is even more blatant in being an insult. It just strikes me as very weird. If you're gonna include a difficulty that's so easy that you basically insult any players that might wish to choose it, than just cut it so that it's not there at all. Nobody wants to pick a difficulty level that makes fun of you.

I'm guilty of this. Warhammer 40k: Space Marine is a good example. It played bad, was repetitive, and generally not very fun but seeing real space marines fighting orks and demons was too much to pass up and played it only for the story.

Not sure but it definitely happens because a reviewer got called out for it and then changed his review so that no one would notice but didn't say that he had made the change.

He also kept the rest of the review and the score even though most of it was based on him being wrong.

Nice come back, don't you have a game to speed run on the hardest difficulty to prove....something to....Who again? If you're going to challenge yourself at least do something people care about. Go beat a game in world record time, go win a SF4 tournament, go join a pro SC2 team. Beating a game your first time on a mode where you die on any hit and enemies take 70000 hits to die isn't impressive, it just shows you're a fucking autist.

I generally play on normal but for some games I have no issue jumpin down to easy so it's more fun. Killing things is fun.

That was my "comeback" because sometimes, people post something that is honestly wrong in so many ways that it's not even worth correcting them.
That was you.

Also, I don't play on hard mode for anyone else. I do it for myself. And I derive pleasure from the knowledge that I was able to do it.

This is true for pretty much everyone who plays games on hard mode.

I don't expect you to get it, because you're a fucking kindergartener. But some people actually take pleasure in honing a skill or craft.

It's the same reason I do mental arithmetic, rather than grabbing a calculator. It makes you better at other, tertiary things.

But that's a side effect. Not the goal. The goal is always just to challenge yourself. If you're not trying to grow as a person, then you're a fucking useless ape who should just throw himself in the goddamn zoo.

Oh, so the issue is you're a narcissist and unable to digest the idea your opinion is not an objective fact?

>I get pleasure beating on hard mode
And I don't. I just want to have fun because video games are entertainment, especially single player ones. If I want to test myself I'll play a competitive game or try speed running a game, not playing on a mode that literally does nothing but make me die in a hit and every enemy becomes a bullet sponge. Accept nothing you do will change others opinions and if people want to run games on easy you just have to deal with it instead of throwing a temper tantrum on a mongolian sweater enthusiasts subreddit.

Again, your opinions are not objective. What you consider the key point of a game does not necessarily hold true for others. I expect you to lash out in insults now due to an inability to process this since you spend most your time on a board that circlejerks

You are also being ultra black and white. Is it wrong for me to play easy in a genre I have never played before? Is it wrong to play easy in games where even normal is insanely hard (Catherine is a good example of this)?

I play the game on the easiest setting first. My next playthrough, I play on the next difficult setting. Once I reach the hardest setting, all playthroughs will be on that setting again (like RE6, damn was it a challenge on some levels to get S rank on that DLC difficulty).
