So true
So true
Not really, playing on easy is boring. Only dimwits like you think it's fun.
Depends of the game, really. Nowadays most "hard" modes just mean enemy HP bloat and extra tedium, in that case only a retard would play on hard.
Classic midwit take.
You're not intelligent.
You're on the left side of the graph, OP.
hang yourself wojak spamming twitter immigrant
normal is unironically the true experience intended by the devs.
replace easy with normal and yeah sure
graph is wrong
im low iq and I agree with middle
playing in the same difficulty as game "journalists"
fun
Reddit is that way
Playing on easy isn't lore accurate and breaks my immersion
Seethe, cope, dilate
Every true RPG game is objectively better when played on easy. Playing on easy lets you play in more suboptimal ways, but which align more with your character.
spent my 20s playing games on hard and very hard
started playing easy at 30
what happened?
Go read a book instead FAGGOT
time is the most valuable thing you have. you can either bang your head against wall for an hour on one boss or go at your own speed. if you want more, the harder difficulty will be there when you're done. and yes, I'm saying this while posting here thanks for noticing. for some games, harder difficulty is the reward like a rhythm game giving you more notes and following the beat better. eventually you have to choose if reaching the skill ceiling is fun and rewarding.
The only game I really think that was meant to be played on the hardest mode is Mass Effect. I didn't realize that until I did an Insanity run, and I realized that's how the games were meant to be played.
Classic retard cope.
Depends on the game. I like Doom4 and Skyrim on easy, but games like Spider-Man, I only enjoy on harder difficulties. Or Elden Ring with specific self imposed challenges, like no summons, shield, or infused weapons.
FUCKING CASUALS
playing on anything but the default setting is dumb and degenerate
game has 4 difficulty modes
third highest feels perfectly balanced
game has 3 difficulty modes
'Normal' is too easy, 'Hard' is too hard
if playing on easy is boring then the game is boring. why would i play on hard then?
Youre one stupid motherfucker
OP here, I just had my first boy period
this, always fucking this
34%
These days I play most strategy games on the easier difficult, just so I can be done with the grinding sooner. If the game lets me just just increase the rate of resources, then I'll use just that option. I barely have time to play these days, and I don't want 80% of that time being griding for resources.
But what if playing on hard is fun?
No it's not you retarded faggot. Beating the game in easy baby cutscene mode is barely even playing, much less fun
OK so I want an shooter game, but I don't want to have to do any shooting, just aim for me. I just want to click the button and win.
The real 140iq take is you should play the game to your comfort level. If you want to challenge yourself or improve at the game then play a higher level, but you will gain little reward aside from the merit of the challenge itself.
My rule of thumb is always the 2nd hardest.
If there are only 3 options, they probably just ramped up the enemy health and damage and didn't give a shit about anything else, so normal is the only sane option. If there are 4 or more then the last one is probably a ballbuster while the one just above it is challenging but still fair.
Changing the difficulty to Hard in most games really just increases the health of enemies and how many of them appear. I don't think that makes the game more fun than if it was on easy mode, it just makes the game take a little more time to finish. I like games which the difficulty actually impacts the gameplay significantly and forces me to change my play style
Fun is a subjective measure and has nothing to do with high iq, high iq people don't reuse a meme to validate their opinions to idiots on the internet.
how about you fucking play on normal for once???
Is this from Spongebob goes to Tehran?
If the game has difficulty settings, then every difficulty should be fun. Hard is best when it means you have to meet additional challenge objectives or overcome additional obstacles (like in Thief or TIE Fighter). A game is bad if hard just means more enemies/higher stats.
However, OP is clearly insecure about enjoying easy mode and thus is a faggot.
game has 9 difficulty modes
because normal is easy for skillet copers.
game let's you set different difficulty modifiers for multiple aspects of the game
Im not gonna get on my high horse and chastize people who play on easy, but its not fun.
Easy is too boring for me, normal feels unsavory, I require the game to challenge at least a little, so I always play on hard.
Yeah, shit games. Makes sense that you play on easy when all you play is slop.
Easy mode
Damage multiplier set to 2x
Give myself cheat armor to make more damage
Yep it's gaming time
erm, you easy cucks clearly don't realize the valuable skills I'm building by playing on super duper double scooper hard mode!! heh, cope much?
It annoys me how few games actually have Hard modes that amount to much more than making a few variables higher or lower.

and yet still more fun than any modern slop or games on easy
It's the most boring shit possible, even worse if it's AAA slop, it's the opposite of fun.
HURRR PRESS X FOR AWESOME YEAH
Are people's brains just fried?
playing on easy is literally not fun, it is boring to the point of being painful
Depends what the difficulty changes
Actual AI changes or extra enemy placements that make the game more engaging
Hard
Multiply HP/Damage
Normal or Easy
I play whatever difficulty is appropriate for me. Sometimes hard is too annoying to deal with and easy is... well, too easy.
There is literally no reason to ever play any game on anything but normal.
FPS niggers like you have been chanting this bullshit for almost 10 years now
The only thing worth playing on higher difficulty, despite just bloated health, is getting exclusive rewards.
I can't get any high out of a game unless it makes me want to destroy my controller for several hours before a victory.
I always play on the second hardest difficulty because that’s usually the intended difficulty
Hard is usually just bloated health numbers
Used to play exclusively on easy because I thought I sucked at games and didn't want to challenge myself because I didn't want to be frustrated all the time.
Now I play on hard because I realized I'm actually fairly good at games and that Hard also offers almost zero Challenge, too.
it depends on the game
strategy/rpg where hard means you have to use all the resources they give you? im picking hard
fps/action where hard means the enemy takes 3x as long to kill? im picking normal
RTS games in a nutshell
Best part is that after difficulty 3, it's all just giving the AI stronger cheats.
Don't speak to be until you've beaten Hellscape_Low_Resources v5 against 7 Brutal Omega Legendary AI using the Deliberately Broken Faction from the DLC
play every game on normal
if I really love a game, replay it on the hardest difficulty
Simple as.
