Horror devs are lazy and gatekeeping for not implementing this? That is the original statement from the thread.

It is a horror game. The point is horror. Sure, if a Dev wants to add the slider, full send. Thats a positive. Devs who want to focus on the fundamental concept are not lazy. They have different priorities.

Not all games must cater to all gamers. Sometimes a game isn't for you. You have different prefferences, that's ok. Different games cater to your preferences.

Some games don't cater to mine and that's fine too

Yes, they are lazy and gatekeeping. Difficulty options are accessibility options and development who don't include those are worthless.

Worthless, wow, hateful words friend. I can see we're not going to get anywhere you ignore my points and throw around vitriol. Wish you the best though.

I will state two last things. One, you ignored the horror game aspect and thus my argument. Two, Difficulty options and low horror settings are not an accessibility feature. That's abalism through low expectations. Support for accessible tools, contrast colouring, larger text, etc. Are though. Still, though something to strive for, the devs who don't add these are over worked individuals with too much on their plate already.

Know you are valued friend these devs are just trying to make something good out here

I read everything you wrote and disagree with every point.
