    Tangential, but I really dislike the industries trend toward super forgiving difficulty settings

    Like the new Halo you can change basically any setting you want to make, to “customise” your difficulty

      Yeah fuck letting new players have a similar experience with the game as more experienced players. If you haven’t spent 20 years playing Halo then you don’t deserve to have fun with it

        You don’t need 20 years of experience to play the game on easy.

        All of your comments in this thread just scream “mad because bad”.

        If a game doesn’t have customizable difficulty, then git gud bruh.

        Or don’t, and go play modern Halo. But either way quit insisting that others dumb down their art to your level.

          I did git gud. I beat the fuckin games, and at a harder level of difficulty than you had to deal with. I just want more people to be able to enjoy these games too. Do you have anything to add to the discussion, or are you just looking for a gate to keep?

            They already can enjoy them, just like you did. They can get good, like you apparently did, or they can play something else.
