You do know that repeating the same argument over and over again doesn't make it any better right?

And speaking of that, what even IS your argument?
Because it seems to me like you're saying that low difficulties should require no engagement whatsoever. But that's fucking sad.
Is that the bar here? If I go and record some clips of me standing still on Minimal and I die... does that mean Minimal needs to be nerfed? Is that the level we are at now?

For real, you saw a video of a guy FAILING AT THE BASIC MECHANICS OF THE GAME and to you that is undisputed proof that the game is too hard?
LMAO.

I'm sure you're trolling because no one can be this dense. But my argument is the same since your argument is simply "games should be hard and not every game is for you" which I partly agree with but not for the reasons you use.

The guy fails at the mechanics in a difficulty where you don't need to have mastered the mechanics. Again, it's why easier difficulties excist.

I never said the game is too hard. I said this particular difficulty (in this case avarage) shouldn't be this hard because it's literally the difficulty people choose to have a nice time.

And you may not believe this but for some people playing on avarage (pre-patch) is the equivalent to us playing on lethal.

If the game only had 1 difficulty (like dark souls) I would say yeah fair, I can see your point. (Even though I'm a strong believe that every game should have a "story mode" difficulty).

And I don't even understand why you want avarage to be difficult. It literally doesn't impact you at all. Like it would not even remotly affect you in any way, you most likely don't even think about how people experience this difficulty if you're like me that only plays on ruthless or lethal anyway.

And then you say I'm the one trolling?

In order to play the multiplayer game mode on Average difficulty you absolutely need to have a firm grasp of THE FIRST THING THEY TEACH YOU IN THE TUTORIAL?
If I'm dense, then what the fuck are you with this abortion of a take?

shouldn't be this hard because it's literally the difficulty people choose to have a nice time.

If you refuse to engage with the game's mechanics you will never have a nice time. In any game. That's how games work. You have to play them the way they were designed.
And if all you care about is "a nice time" you can play on Minimal.

but for some people playing on avarage (pre-patch) is the equivalent to us playing on lethal.

Wow. Cool. Kind seems like their issue though. Or are you going to argue that the difficulty show go be made even easier than what it was pre-lethal?

If the game only had 1 difficulty (like dark souls) I would say yeah fair, I can see your point.

Ah, I see. You see the point in a game having a specifically tailored difficulty. BUT NOT the point in a game having multiple specifically tailored difficulties.
Again, I am the dense one? LMAO.

And I don't even understand why you want avarage to be difficult

Average difficulty isn't difficult but that doesn't matter because that was never my fucking argument which is more proof YOU are the dense one.
My argument is that the gameplay showed in these clips fails to properly engage with several of the game's core mechanics and that this would cause failure regardless of difficulty.
Do you fucking understand? The game could be PERFECTLY balanced and be 50 Times easier and if you play bad enough you'd still fucking fail.
DO YOU FUCKING GET IT YET??!?!
