This exactly. I don’t care what’s happening at work. If I’m not “at work” I’m not available for work at all in anyway.

How is it not gatekeeping?

You’re saying some people shouldn’t get to play a game where difficulty options are an easy solution.

A book or a movie isn’t an equivalent comparison. Not too mention there ARE simplified versions of popular books or abridged versions and movie guides and so on anyway.

Almost all the time this is brought up it’s for single player games. Why do you care if I need a bit more health to get through it? How does that take anyone away from you? I assure you nothing will be lost by allowing people to play it with double the health, or without a arbitrary grinding mechanic that inflates the games length, or whatever really.

No one is asking for the subject matter to be dumbed down, or for the story to be shallow or transparent.

Why should someone not get to play through a game because they insisted their hand and can’t dodge anymore?

No one is asking devs to remove hard mode. They are asking them to include an easy mode for people who can’t deal with hard mode. People with physical or mental barriers, people who don’t have time, or really any reason.

This is no different than inclusivity.

YOU might not remember anything that wasn’t challenging but that doesn’t mean it’s like that for others. I remember everything from Skyrim. I love Skyrim. I had fun with it so I remember it.

I don’t remember much from Elden ring cus I never made it. I struggled at it and couldn’t her anywhere.

I can back years later and cheated on a bit more health and more health potions. It was challenging still but I could at least experience the rest of the game.

Gate keeping sucks. Let everyone in.

Enjoying life. Enjoying the warmth, enjoying being clean, thinking, singing, relaxing, so on…

Aqua Sorceress checking in.

There are some pretty good studies showing flooding might actually not do all that much and that fluoride is like only really important thing. It’s kind of wild. Some show that swishing mouth was is just as good or water picks too. Long of why you always get different opinions from different dentists.

Science VS did an episode on the same subject too.

I didn’t slack off after the research but it was interesting none the less. Its in my routine so whatever.
