The idea that games should be accessible to everyone is stupid. Movies or books or music aren't like that. Why do people pretend video games should be.

True but if a director refused to put subtitles or skip scene or fast forward on his DVDs and demanded Netflix didn't let you do that, because "It's not the way i tended it" then he would be seen as a weirdo

So Fromsoftware change their artistic vision because some refuse to play the game and get better?

Some people refuse. Some people can't

Lots of people just aren't having fun

I feel like for games made for the purpose of being challenging, the introduction of difficulty modes or sliders just takes away from the time that can be better used to refine the core experience.


How?

There were fan made mods that broke the game released for free on PC before most players had beaten the game.

This excuse doesn't hold water.

Not every game needs to be playable by a quadriplegic using their eyes.


I'm reminded of a scene from A Touch of Frost where a woman is like "You can't be mad that the murderer got away. You can't win every case you know." and Frost replies "I can try."

And I'm reminded of that scene here.

No, not everyone can play and beat every game. But why are options that make it more fun and more open to more people a bad thing?

No one is advocating mandatory easy modes you have to play. Just optional ones.

I mentioned earlier in the topic and you people ignored it, lets say some guy who is bad at games can never beat Dark Souls legit ever, so he uses a bunch of mods to make the game much easier. Then he plays the entire game, still finds it challenging, beats it, has a really good time.

What harm has his experience done to you?

For my part I have a friend who is about as good as Video Games as a dog and she loved RE2make conceptually but couldn't play it because she sucked at it and it was too hard. So she did a run on Assisted (Easy) with the Infinite Rocket launcher I unlocked and she still found it challenging. Had a blast.

People like you seem to be advocating that such people shouldn't have fun because their enjoyment ruins yours despite not effecting you and I just don't understand it.
