I want this to happen in a videogame one day:
"You've died three times in row, would would like to drop it to a lower difficulty?"
YES
NO
Player picks "YES"
"There is no lower difficulty."
and then the game loads to the most recent checkpoint or w/e.
Thanks for sharing this. This gave me an idea. I think I'll name the easiest difficulty mode in one of my games PussyPunkBitch.
I wanted to post the same thing. Love the Touhou difficulty descriptions.Instead of being insulted by easy modes, I love it when hard modes insult your lack of a life. "Why are you even playing this you maniac" etc...
That last one is pretty appropriate.
Fuckin noooope! Demon's Souls was the hardest of the bunch. Or at least it had the hardest parts. Flamelurker, Allant, Maneaters. The entire last level was a total bitch. Demon's was hard as shit.
Me playing dozens of Civilization V games on Settler difficulty is an insult to mankind, but I just can't stop doing it. I just don't like to risk not winning most of the time.
It's just poking fun at you. A bit more creative way of naming difficulties than "easy, medium, hard, extra hard". After all, you are playing as macho Nazi slaying machine BJ Blazkowicz
Is that the face of a man who does things on Easy?
Lol.That's the face of a man who shoots himself in the chest a few times if his enemy misses too many times "just to keep it sporting"
"for people who don't fit in the real world"Instead of being insulted by easy modes, I love it when hard modes insult your lack of a life. "Why are you even playing this you maniac" etc...
That last one is pretty appropriate.
Describing the hardest difficulty as "Prayer for IT Data Security" is actually really funny when you think enough about it.Instead of being insulted by easy modes, I love it when hard modes insult your lack of a life. "Why are you even playing this you maniac" etc...
That last one is pretty appropriate.
for the record i think chicken hat is a great addition to the game hail kojima bring back hayter etc etcyou're both insane. this is hands down one of the greatest features in mgs5, that shit is hilarious.
Nobody wants to pick a difficulty level that makes fun of you.
Glory to the generation of everything is offensive!
Yes, when I posted it on page 1, I forgot to give more context, excuse me, I'm a big Touhou fan who actually like the Danmaku games."for people who don't fit in the real world"
DAAAAAAAMN
Also gives this picture:
a whole other layer. :lol
So what are you saying then?What about a player with a disability preventing them from having quick reactions or input?
Does playing on a lower difficulty level make them a "baby" or a "pussy"?
Nothing wrong with poking fun at players from time to time, and I'm definitely not saying these difficulty jokes should be removed, but is playing a game on a lower difficulty level really mock-worthy in all cases?

Also, if I had to play a game on a lower difficulty level for whatever reason, I guess I'd be off put by it doing something like giving me a pink scarf or whatever. Not offended, but it'd be kind of annoying if the game made you look different or miss out on content simply for not playing on a hard difficulty mode. The beauty of video games is the fact that everyone can get something different out of them.
To me it was easier.It was still harder than Demon's Souls though.
Cute naming, but probably embarrassed a great many adults who thought they were 'too good' for kids...
Yeah, it was the same for Mass Effect 3, only 4% of players finished the game on the hardest difficulty, Insanity, it was really shocking to hear it was that low. I think that I have grossly overestimated the skill level of your average gamer.
