IMO people don't have a problem with anything until it's a game they don't like so they use this reason to justify why the game is bad.

NOT REALLY.

games have been about exploring yourself and etc but lately its been a fast food

For example, TLoU holds your hand and yet some people think it's one of the best games in the world.

This is such a strange, pathetic topic. Anyone with a hobby wants to push themselves. You dont see weight lifters bench pressing ten pounds. You dont see guitarists sticking to three cords. You dont see artists sticking to stick figures. You dont see people who like to shoot using 10 feet targets from ten feet away.

Maybe tc needs a video game to tell him hes a good boy. I dunno. You do you, bro.

I wish the Dark Souls series bombed. Its not fun, and its waaaaaaaay too hard and has no easy mode. No buy for me hopefully the series tanks.
Go play a easy mode baby game.

Get good, or find a different game.

The world doesn't have to cater to your weak casual game play ideals.

Go play bejeweled or flappy bird.

But that might be too hard for your casual sensibilities who can't take difficulty of any form.

He's picked up a couple games like MGS4 and The Last Of Us and gave up on them instantly. Played a little bit of FF15 as well. Other than that it's just sports games. The only non-sports title it looks like he might have beaten is Heavy Rain.

You call yourself a gamer, but can't handle difficulty.

Maybe "Flappy Bird" might be 'Too Challenging' for you.

Let's find a simpler game for you.

Heavy Rain is FREAKING Easy, it's a glorified Quick Time event game.

MGS4 is more of a real game, but if you give that up; Well, that says a lot about you.

There is clearly room for both.

The problem I find is that most people identify 'difficulty' with an unfair scenario or purposefully oblique instructions. There is a huge difference between letting players figure out puzzles/tricks and purposely doing things the opposite of how they normally are just to create fake difficulty.

It depends on context, too. Like, sure, some areas in games are scenic and great to explore, but sometimes a level just has to exist to move the plot from A to B, and forcing players to spend inordinate amount of time in a workhorse area is just a buzzkill. However, quickly railroading a player through a beautiful and wide open space is equally bad.

It's about balance, honestly. There is a vocal contingent of gamers who like to gatekeep to make themselves feel special, instead of realizing how much of a tool for connecting games can be, and sometimes it's okay to have a floating icon, and sometimes it's not.

I did as well. In fact, it would actually be a good topic had he gone that route. TonyKojima is an extremely low effort troll.

The point of a game is to provide at least some resistance to mentally engage you.

Can't handle the truth?

Infamous Leftist SJW Troll @TonyKojima can't handle the harsh real truth of his pathetic attitude towards gaming challenge.

How'd you even get through school much less college if you can't handle difficulty?

May be pong is more your speed, but that could be "too hard" because it could be too fast for you.

You need to actually have some reaction time to be good at pong.

Maybe dig dug could be more your game?

But dig dug moves in real time, that might be too fast paced for you.

You like simple right, you like everything in life handed to you on a silver platter.

How about checkers, that's turn based and you can take your sweet time facing your opponent.

That should be a game that is more your speed.

But you might actually lose, womp womp!

How about a walking simulator, all you have to do is just hold one button.

That's the perfect game for you TonyKojima, just hold one button and get your little reward.

Perfect for somebody who doesn't like difficulty in any way and wants everything handed towards him.

Does anybody have a good walking simulator for TonyKojima where he can't lose?

A real veteran gamer would RELISH at ever increasing difficulties and challenges.

You came here to whine about how hard things get.
