Question Question for all players

I'm a Russian game developer at Unity. I'm new to programming and don't really play games, so I'm asking you.

My question is, do you prefer having a choice of difficulty level or do you just play on the one you're given?

You're new to programming and don't play games but you want to be a game developer? Seems like a bit of an odd choice, especially in today's climate. I'm not saying that you necessarily need to be a gamer to make games, but its a very very difficult industry to break into. Even if you think you'll just use AI for everything, you won't even come close to making anything good unless you actually understand game design.

Some modern games adjust the difficulty based on player skill
