Likewise. My time is too valuable for that, unless I’m aching to be punished.
The thing is, this could be the one game I find easy on default level, and may not need to lower difficulty (which I would feel good about). It’s just good we have options to go up or down. But I feel it is very important for the developers to tell us, the players, the way they’d prefer to see it played and how challenging they want it to be.
