    Exactly. It’s like some players want to gatekeep the game in a way where it’s an exclusive experience with this weird “If you’re trash then git gud or you shouldn’t play” mentality.

    Weird how there’s this “there shouldn’t be an easy mode” mentality yet the community absolutely ate up the whole “Let me solo her” meme where another player literally came in and fought people’s fights for them and that was totally acceptable.

      They only like those games so they can feel better than others. Gatekeeping is part of their fun.

      If the souls games had much more to offer than difficulty like they claim, then the game would still be good with a lower difficulty.
