difficulty

[Froge]

why is it such a crime for a game to have a lot of challenge as well as a great story? perhaps im being naieve, but, i dont see why it seems to be a case of a game can have a great story, or it can have great gameplay, why on earth cant it have both? there have been many great games in the past that proove that the 2 are not mutually exclusive, so why on earth do so many people still seem to think they are?

I dont see what is wrong with having an ultra hard mode that unlockes once youve finished the game on its regular setting, i mean, once you know the story, theres no real point in going back for the story again, so i dont see what is wrong with having a special mode that unlocks on completion that is more gameplay focussed, for those gamers who want a challenge after they have experienced the story, ok, some of you dont want an ultra hard mode... well just Dont play on ultra hard mode! dont deny those of us who do want an ultra hard mode the right to have one, leave that kind of behavior to MW trolls Please!

You're completely neglecting genre.

Amnesia is horror. The challenge in this genre lies within the mind of the player, not in gameplay; horror is about making the player feel disturbed or scared, succeeding when the player feels too afraid to proceed out of fear rather than difficulty. The best horror games are of this case.
