Hello guys and gals, it’s me Mutahar again! This time we take a look at one of the hottest games on the planet and talk about wheather it needs an “easy mode”? Personally I think it doesn’t need it due to the various assists it provides but I’ve seen to many twitter posts to leave things unsaid. Thanks for watching!

Lmao doom eternal for that ultra nightmare difficultly even on console so much fun but yes there is a learning curve but make it that much more satisfying once you master it.
No
Mh problem is figuring out the difference of being underleveled vs Being Trash. Took me ages to beat Marget and I thought it was just because I was bad
The phrase “souls like” would not have caught on if the games were easy.
I think not every game should be catered for everyone. Allowing an easy mode will also take away the reward or sense of accomplishment for people that play the game as what developer has intended the game to be.
depends if its passive agressive or not?
i will accept an easy mode if the devs tell you are a b!tch and pressing accept is like sacrificing your first born child to the goblins so you can print gold threads from your butt hole.
I Beat Elden Ring, Like DarkSouls…
No
No discussion.
I'm NEW to the souls series with Elden Ring, and if you can't be successful at this dam game you truly need to git fucking gud
If souls games would have an easy mode i would play them on easy knowing myself..but they don't and I still managed to beat every souls like games from fromsoftware.
You have a Jawa in your room… tread carefully o.o
I saw the title no it shouldnt. Idc what anyone says. Its self explanatory
It absolutely does not need an easy mode. If I had put dark souls 2 (my first FromSofrware game)on easy mode, I know for a fact I would not have fell in love with souls games
I don't know where to go. I'm used to objective markers (I know I know..) so I'm kinda lost. The world is so open with little to no hint of what to do next.
I just see not having a easy mode as wasted potential for something that could be a lot of fun
Also, hating a game you play is a niche… Don't discredit that.
Yeah, you may like the white knuckle shit,but some of us want to see the content without hating the game.
Being a fucking gatekeeper for difficult games just makes the assholes and devs …. assholes.
What if they add a chicken hat mode from MGSV
Sometimes easy mode is what the people crave for. But as the old saying goes easy times make weak men. For a souls like game its basically stripping it down and spitting on it as you take what makes it a unique game ordinary. What makes a souls game a souls game is that not everyone can complete it and thats fine. Much like life not everyone will be successful in tasks or objectives and thats fine. I think this shows the human mentality now that there is a shortcut or that things should be easy all the time that now video games should be easy too.
It would be funny for a souls game to have an easy mode but nothing changes at all.
If you don't like it, just ignore it. Either way STFU
People knew what they were getting into why cry about it
difficulty sliders are BULLSHIT. YES they do affect my experience. its bad af. make difficulty modes or dont
Uh…you can step further back from this whole hubbub. Games are for individuals' enjoyment, alone or in in-game groups. They're not meant to achieve any kind of social goals. If it's clearly not for you, you've lost nothing, but you also have no leverage in the discussion. Your social demands have nothing to do with the devs' choices. Their responsibility is to the people they are trying to give enjoyment to. If the people who actually deeply care about the game's future say something is too hard or unfair, then I'm sure any good dev will respond. The screeching only matters if the dev cares about the screechers, but they do themselves no favors to that end by behaving like people you wouldn't want to be your fans.
The game has an easy mode it’s called magic or just grind till your level 150 and body everything
Simple answer: no. Lol
Hot Take: Gatekeeping is a good thing.
No.
There is an easy mode in Elden Ring, Its called the Sword of Night and Flame it counters literally every boss in the game and just deletes their health bars. I've been having a blast with it just invalidating all these "challenging" boss encounters for the past 40 hours.
Elden ring, for me atleast was one of the hardest souls game i've played. I keep saying they hit like a semi and move like a F1 car, but GOD DAMN did it feel good to take down Godrick after many deaths. I cant imagine what it'd feel like doing that on top of having physical or mental disabilities, it'd be something to gloat about for a bit for sure
Idk man. I feel like in the other soulsborne games the difficulty stayed in sort of the same place for most of the game, whereas for elden ring the rise in difficulty when you go to Caelid just isn’t fair. Same can be said for later area’s as well. I’d be perfectly able to go through some of these bosses and areas and have a much easier time if the enemies didn’t nearly one-shot me when I have 35 vigor. I don’t want to pump half of my stat points at level 140 into vigor. It’s beginning to feel like less of a “difficult” game, and more like a difficulty slider cranked to the max. Enemies have more health, do enormous amounts of damage, and have strings of combos that are nearly undodgeable because they hit you in such quick succession.

( i'm physically disabled and these games kick my ass now, I don't use it in multiplayer since my copy is 🏴☠️ due to having the income of a disabled person)
The difficulty in From Software games is the intrinsic philosophy of their development cycle and also their identity as a developer and a company. That’s why they have so much popularity at this moment in time. That’s why they have probably sold 20 or 30 million copies of Elden Ring. The CRAZIEST thing about this to me is, From Software has been awarded so much success, and so much praise from their dedicated fans. To put their heads down for 5 -6 years and make a game that IS their most approachable, whilst still retaining the essence and philosophy of the DIY mentality and self confidence to overcome adversity in the face of overwhelming odds and suffering these games are famous for is I feel, a new pedigree for them. The fact that these whiny mother fuckers, who think they have a better idea than the company in question who makes these games, and has garnered so much success by not listening to wack jobs who think a video game that “beat them”, is so important to them, they feel they should have a say in the creative process, to me, is completely selfish and asinine, discounts the entire fandom, and From Software itself, who suffered together to get this company out of the niche and into the mainstream where they belong, and is completely disrespectful. “You Died” is a staple in pop culture at this point, and you died for a reason, because you refuse to learn. We have to gate keep. To keep these gems away from baby pussy bitches that are to scared to learn the language, thus they want to force them to create a new one. So No, they shouldn’t have to change that for the sake of inclusivity. This has nothing to do with accessibility. It’s selfish and insulting to ask an artist to change their canvas because you think you have a better one. If you can’t get on with the difficulty in these games, go play Boogie Bunnys bitch. Death Rite Bird killed me 32 times, and it was great. 🙌☀️
In the name of Harmon…
I have a friend who's basically a simp for all the souls games. He wanted me to play Elden Ring with him, but I didn't wanna drop 70$ on a game from a genre that I'm not fairly experienced with, and don't know if I'll enjoy my time playing it or not.
Well, I have played DS3 before, but only the begenning of it and I had to stop shortly after due to the hacker problem.
I thought of a game that I bought almost 3 years ago, but never touched. Sekiro! I wanted to beat it to have a general idea of the souls game, and so far I find sekiro pretty damn fun. idk why I never gave it a chance.
Anyway, I'm excited to try Elden Ring, and if Sekiro is generally considered harder than the other souls games, maybe I won't have much of a problem playing them after beating Sekiro.
No
Simple as
no it shouldn't, end of discussion lol
NO EASY MODE
Honestly people complain about difficulty of souls games go play Pokemon Stadium 2 and finish the game on R2 and then tell me Elden Ring is difficult lol!
So TLDR the reason we don't make it accessible to more people via difficulty settings is because the game is meant to be hard, you're meant to suffer, and it would somehow ruin the experience for the tryhards who'd play on the hardest difficulty anyway.
Man i just wanna walk around and take in the atmosphere and art design without getting my ass handed to me every 5 seconds by some random mook who i have to grind to kill cause I unknowingly entered a "high level area".
More difficulty settings takes away nothing from the game for those who are gonna play it as intented. Literally nothing. And don't try to say it ruins issoftwares artistic vision when the difficulty settings can come AFTER the shit is made. What a horrible take on this situation.
No.
You don’t get to complain about a challenge being too difficult. Especially when it was one you willingly took on.
Just keep trying, chipping away, learning.
Water cuts a river through the rock, not because of it’s power, but because of it’s persistence.
No. That's the whole point of these games? Why is this even a question?
For me its just like theres something wrong with my brain, my ability to learn how bosses play out or work just does not work, even applying with highschool rn, I literally can not even do assignments because of the fact that my brain just does not work. Idk what to even do
Short answer: No
