    Other people having the option to tailor the game to their skill level does nothing to your experience of the game. If other people having access cheapens the experience for you, you have issues.

      This game isn’t made for them, it’s made for me. It’s the full package, it’s amazingly well balanced, and truly a lovingly crafted work of art

      If you want to mod the game to make it easier, I have no problem with you, or people who use it

      But I don’t want a win button in my wonderfully challenging game. I don’t want this to be ruined with temptation. That’s what would cheapen the experience

        Cool, so you have issues.

        Just because the button exists doesn’t mean you have to use it. The game isn’t made for any one person, it is made for a variety of people with differing skill levels and physical capabilities. The existence of accessibility features does not cheapen your experience, if they do you have issues.

          If you make every game for everyone, you make slop

          I don’t care if you can enjoy it without putting the effort I put in. I just don’t want a way for myself to make it easier. That’s it.

          Fuck off, this is a masterpiece and I love it so much I’ve developed a new callous on my thumb and had to take a day off. I’ve overcome every challenge, I’ve dealt with the frustration, and victory was all the sweeter for that.

          I don’t care what you do or don’t enjoy, don’t fuck with my game. I don’t care if you watch a playthrough or mod the game so you can enjoy the story.

          I’m not being elitist, I’m pissed because people are trying to ruin the masterfully crafted artistic vision of the best game I’ve played in years

            Cool. So I guess people like me with neuropathy should fuck off so people like you can get a boost of perceived superiority because God forbid they put a slider for slowing game speed or other such settings so people like me with physical limitations can adjust the challenge to our capabilities.

            The existence of OPTIONAL difficulty settings has nothing to do with your experience of the game. If you don’t opt into using them, your game experience is literally no different than if they didn’t exist at all.

            Yes, you in fact are being elitist. The way other people are able to experience the game has NOTHING to do with your experience. Be proud of your experiences for what they are, not how they compare to others’ experiences.

              No, you should have a button through the workshop where you can add mods to slow down the game, take less damage, or whatever else you want or need. Let people rebalance the whole damn game if they want, if that makes you enjoy the game I’m happy for you

              It should made easier then it is right now with proper workshop integration so it can be done in just a couple clicks. I’d support calling for that

              What I don’t want is for team cherry to be pressured to change the game. It’s amazing as is, it’s extremely well thought out in how it challenges you even as the difficulty people complain about prepares you for future challenges. But people who will never enjoy it for what it is instantly demand it be watered down

              You think a speed slider is going to make this game accessible? That’s not how this game works. This game is impossible at every challenge until it isn’t. That is the game. It’s rhythm and reaction, if you can do it slow you can do it normally

              If I didn’t have a friend who played smash with three fingers and his hip on a heavily modded controller, I wouldn’t have the instincts to be able to play this game. He kicked my ass every time, despite nerve palsy that left him with half of one working hand

              This game is not for everyone. And I don’t mean because of abilities… I’m not that good of a gamer. This game is for people who don’t accept their limits
