I'm curious what pro-difficulty-only people think of let's plays, like are they meant to be enjoyed as a showcase of skill/a bragging rights thing over having the game/being able to play it, or are they despised for being a way for others to partake in a game without having to deal with the challenge of gaming themselves? Because watching a let's play of a difficult game is kind of like getting to play it on story mode!
There's almost certainly an aspect of like... "accessibility means everything being bland and oversimplified" rather than "accessibility means options." It's the classic "should we dumb down classrooms to cater to the bottom students, or should we increase the pace of teaching so the top students can thrive?" when like... if you restructure the system, you can help both groups of students without interfering with the other's educational experience, and in fact maybe people do better in tailored environments.
