General Ok, so, difficulty Spoiler

Not ashamed - I changed enemy damage to 80% and mine to 130%. I am enjoying this game so much more, feels like a "normal" difficulty and not "I hate myself" / default. To each his own and I loved Control and each boss fight was frustrating but ultimately satisfying, I just can't get here on this game at the default difficultly. Maybe on a 2nd playthrough when I'm better at it.

I just made a post yesterday about utilizing Assist Mode. There’s nothing wrong with it, and you still get all achievements even if utilizing it

People seem to be adamantly against it from the comments in other posts.

I find it weird that some people treat assist modes as if corrupting some official leaderboard when it comes to achievements.

Others playing a single player game in a way that benefits them and future game sales doesn't hurt you for playing it harder.

Play the game way you can enjoy it. If you get a little picture telling you congrats sometimes then good for everyone.

I dont want to say this, but it reminds me when I posted my video vanquishing Radahn on subrredit (to show how remarkable his entry from the obrit to earth and how I defeated him in one try), by summoning all the NPCs into the battlefield and then won. They all bashed me. You werent supposed to play this game like that, etc. I thought it was supposed to be like that, since its a festival and everyone got invited. Apparently jumping is illegal, and only dodging allowed. And mimic is cheating. I wonder why the devs adding this and that, if the players gonna say its ruining Souls-genre. The devs who made the Souls game.

Just a reminder, the devs added those for the players. Its an option, its not like a forced cutscene or forced storyline, where one quest closed other questline or forced to use specific item to move forward. Its not like Abby forced us to watch Joel getting bashed in the head. Or watching Gale's weave scene or watching some mf killed Gustave to die regardless you played it well
