Some creators design a game to be for hardcore gamers, like the nintendo hard games of NES and SNES.
You can not like it but no creator should be forced to add a difficulty as that is infringing on their creative choice.
I like having lots of options for difficulty but some creators do not believe the same and thats ok.
That's not a response to my question.

I said why should they be immune to criticism?

IF you designed a DVD that had no scene selection, no fast forward, no subtitle options and random swtiched off and ejected itself partway through viewing, forcing you to attempt to watch it through 8/9 times over before you saw the whole thing, that would be fucking dumb and everyone would call it fucking dumb.

The "Well legally they're allowed to do it, therefore it's wrong to bash them." argument would never be made ever in defense of that.

Do you have any evidence that the games would have sold better without difficulty options?

Either way your point is full of holes. If Dark Souls 4 released with difficulty options, all the same users currently arguign "It's up to the devs" would flip and scream/cry that they were included.

This never ever ever had anything to do with "respect to the devs" who constantly get pissed on and have to do what corporate wants them to do every step of development in the first place 97% of the time. It was always just a way for exetremely insecure people to feel superior to others.

Guy who literally whines that "Trial and error" is how a video game should be

I'm with ya on competetive multiplayer games but single player ones? There is no valid argument against more options for players.

Brightness control
Subtitles
Diffculty
Contrast
Sound output

More power/options to the player to have fun with their toy = better toy.
