A gaming community free from the hype and oversaturation of current releases, catering to gamers who wait at least 12 months after release to play a game. Whether it's price, waiting for bugs/issues to be patched, DLC to be released, don't meet the system requirements, or just haven't had the time to keep up with the latest releases.

Wuchang Fallen Feathers. 46 year old man who uninstalled/refunded it. Way tooooo difficult for my reflexes. Plus no difficulty settings is a deal breaker.

Other devs taking on the FromSoft "deal with it" attitude to difficulty/accessibility options is such a shame. I think as there are more and more older gamers out there hopefully things will slowly start to change.

Were you playing on PC? One saving grace there is usually there are plenty of mod options available for toning down difficulty.

Ya, I was on the PC. My stance is that if they don't care about my experience, I must not be their target demographics. No need to give them money so they think I was a satisfied customer.

I might pirate it tho and try modding.
