do you play every game in easy mode? No judging you, just curious. I do not play every game in hardest difficulty, but I do play above normal difficulty

[–] chiliedogg@lemmy.world 11 points 1 day ago

I have trouble finding time to game these days. Easy modes let me experience the games more quickly. It's not always the "best" way to experience a game, but I don't have more than 1 or 2 hours a week on average to play games these days.

Yes. I don't deal with frustration all that well. I want to experience the world and story, more than trying to master the gameplay.

Honestly I understand. People watch movies too, and that's very easy mode.

But yeah, you'll probably want to stay away from anything labeled "soulslike" then. I haven't played Hollow Knight, but these games are typically about perfecting your skill and tactics by dying repeatedly

your skill and tactics by dying repeatedly

Personally, this is more generous than I'd call it

Im old. I play easy. I just have little time with work, family, etc. To spend yet more time gaming. I enjoy the story and get to experience it quicker than I otherwise would.
