I play games on Easy mode and I will not apologize for wanting to feel like a competent protagonist

Hard mode is just Easy mode with more suffering. I play games to escape reality, not to relive it. My protagonist is powerful, loved, and has never died. This is the experience I deserve.

I play on Story mode because I AM here for the story. The combat is a cutscene I have to button-mash through.

Someone called me a 'casual' like it was an insult. I said 'yes, I am casually enjoying myself while you scream at a boss for 6 hours.'

Dark Souls players reading this are already writing a manifesto. Let them cook. On Easy mode, we call it 'warming.'
