Re: Lol Youtube commenters need to get a life
@12 I was not being sarcastic, I think you simply misinterpreted what I had to say. When you're playing a game, what exactly is it you're doing? Most of the time you try to achieve an objective or uncover a plot, except for arcade games where you just try to get your score as high as you can. In most games, there will be obstacles or tasks you must complete that prevent you from doing either of those things. The point is to have fun trying to overcome those challenges so you can accomplish what you or the game wants you to accomplish. Ideally you'd use the difficulty/accessibility settings you need to give yourself a nice challenge. If you don't want to do that, that's on you. But a sense of achievement, in my opinion, is only gained by having at least some risk. If you're playing a single player game, I honestly couldn't care less how you do it. If you want to set everything to its lowest possible setting and be done with the game in a few hours, go ahead. I just hope you actually have fun doing so. If discovering the story matters to you more than challenging yourself, you could in the case of tlou2 turn on every single a11y assistant and set the difficulty to the easiest possible setting. If you're doing that purely to minimise the obstacles in your way to uncovering the plot, I feel you might be gaining more from watching a letsplay since that lets you experience the story in almost the same way. While I was playing sequence storm, I didn't worry about gaining gold medals and bonus objectives anywhere, I just wanted to finish all the missions. After I'd done that, I started focussing on level perfection. Sequence storm is such a great example because if all you care about is beating the story mode and playing all the missions you can do that, but perfecting all the levels on all the difficulties is an entire challenge in of itself.
