About Difficulty Selection Options

Making the game easier does not automatically allow disabled players to play it.

Correct, there is a need for an accessibility mod not an easy mod for that.

@Argato

A good example is Summons in Elden Ring

Yes: “in game difficulty settings“. Not just things that make it easier like summons and consumables, but also things that make the game harder like “Shabriri’s Woe”

@Argato

the game could invest in a universal balance.

But I think an accessibility mod/story mode would make sense. like in Celeste and Another Crab’s Treasure.

@Argato

In the end, I would like to see the community united around a single challenge. There are countless ways to make a game easier or harder through mechanics: summons to help with bosses, optional accessories to increase difficulty, such as rings that make the player take more damage. It’s far better to encourage players to engage with certain mechanics than to present the “hardest option” right at the start of the game.

Agree, I agree I expressed similar thoughts here: Game Accessibility and Difficulty, Unsolved and New Problems (Breach Refind)
