I liked the suggestion in another topic that easy mode should just be -1 HP for all bosses, lmao.

What are you even playing elden ring for aside from it's punishing difficulty? It's captivating story? The beautiful graphics that you can just look up online? GTFO. I guarantee if they included difficulty options people would still find something to whine about.

Making things for "all gamers" (aka appealing to the lowest common denominator) is why video games fell into the watered down samey quagmire that plagues the industry.

"If you try to appeal to everybody, you'll end up appealing to nobody."

These comments summarize my opinion on this.

Theres over 5 million games in existence and at this point on steam alone almost 10k games are released every year:
https://www.statista.com/statistics/552623/number-games-released-steam/

So why complain if one game isnt tailored towards your skill level? Theres an ocean of games out there that look pretty and are easy, literally theres something out there for everyone. Not to mention you have actual handicapped people who manage to beat these From Software games with their mouth or feet.

Leave your ego at the door. All these people complaining try to bull charge the first enemy they see and get offended when they don't walk over them. Running, summoning, cheesing are valid tactics.

Not only valid, but adds fun. Which you'll never come around to if you just artificially debuff everything and buff yourself

"But FromSoftwares insistence on keeping the game nearly impossible for non-elite players feels foolhardy."

Why do people have this idea that you have to be some elite gamer to be able to beat a souls game lol.

Because it fits the narrative when they start off by generalizing all of us as tryhards that only play because we can brag about it after. Souls games are easier than the average NES game.

In my experience with ER, the difficulty has far less to do with damage dealt/received and far more to do with learning boss patterns. Most trash mobs don't mean shit unless you're deliberately careless or get swarmed, the real challenge is bosses. There's no good way to dumb them down unless you either reduce their damage by like 90% or eliminate their attack patterns entirely. There's just no good way to implement "easy mode." It would take completely reworking and rebalancing all the bosses.

This. Even lowering damage bosses or enemies do isnt gonna make a difference if you just blindly charge at everything.

Easy mode wont help these people. The only way to get better at this game is to learn from your mistakes which they dont seem to want to do.

They probably don't have the capacity to learn from their mistakes.
