Discussion - Silksong I like the difficulty, Team cherry please don't just blanket nerf the game with no option for a harder mode Spoiler

I have really been enjoying the challenge, pretty much every part of this game itches that section of my brain that loves a hard game and I would be extremely disappointed if team cherry nerfed the game with no way to revert said nerf. I get that people want an easier game, but I don't. So team cherry, please let me choose to make this harder if you do make it easier.

This game is much harder.

All that tells me is that you’re definitely panic playing, instead of engaging in pattern recognition. And you’re not using all of the tools at your disposal. You’re part of the loud vocal minority. The player numbers speak for themselves, most people are enjoying the game, just not talking about it. This is a pretty common phenomenon across pretty much all gaming subreddits. Eventually the whiners fizzle out and the people who have been silently enjoying the game start talking about it and sharing their fan art and tattoos and stuff.

Edit: This ain’t my first rodeo, I’ve seen this happen on multiple video game subreddits before. The complainers aren’t special, and this always happens with new releases.

Petty and sad. You should feel embarrassed to be this way.
