summoning as a whole

claymore, pyromancy, ninja flip, and zweihander in ds1 (zweihander can stunlock most bosses with proper stamina usage and positioning, claymore absolutely shreds with its damage and moveset)

powerstancing (fuck ds3 for getting rid of this), rapiers, red iron twinblade, and mace in ds2/sotfs

longsword and twinswords in ds3

honestly as long as you focus on str, vig, and end its pretty hard to go wrong

It's stupid for From to not respond to this market demand but what do I know? Aside from how to make money that is.

The game isnt even hard to begin with.

If anything it is trial and error. Some bosses can be hard, but the super bosses are usually optional.

Because the difficulty of From Soft games is vastly overblown ? Dont get me wrong, they arent easy, but they arent super kaizo, extreme difficulty for the sake of difficulty either.

Is there a big market demand for it?

Being a mage is easy mode. Summoning for bosses is basically cheating. I'll get dudes who can one shot bosses for me. Not even worth it.

eh, depends

in the DS2 DLCs, at least, enemies are super resistant to elemental damage

DS1 has enemies outright immune to certain damage types

Easy mode on Soulslike games, for me, is watching it on Twitch, sadly. I enjoy the lore of Bloodborne, for instance, and love seeing the boss fights, but I feel like I don't have the skill that I used to - I think I got to my first boss once.

Likewise for WoW, actually; I love the lore and rejoiced when Looking For Raid became a thing. I'm effectively guildless and can't take the time investment to wrangle a raid schedule.

Jedi: Fallen Order is at least hitting a decent balance for me; I started on the easiest difficulty and ramped it up as I learned the mechanics. Different strokes for different folks.

I dont get the whole "Dark Souls needs an easy mode" meme

Monster Hunter is arguably harder than Dark Souls, also doesn't have an easy mode, and it sold record numbers, so ???

You don't get it. They want to play it solo too. Hell, maybe they don't wanna have cliffs either so throw some bumpers on it.

Do a strength build, wear heavy armor and use a greatsword. Easy peasy hyper armor trading for those who love to spam r1.

Not even arguable in my opinion. Monster Hunter is definitely harder and less accessible after low rank. But I feel like most people that bought MHW only play the story and then quit.

I wonder if the people asking for an easy mode are just a vocal minority.

My take is: it's easy to add from a coding perspective, it satisfies > 0 potential customers

From a business perspective, it's an easy decision to make. Then again, I wonder if adding an easy mode would make some gamers so mad they boycott the game.
