Let's have two steps back from Chris article. Let's remove him.

- Do games need difficulty options? Yes. Not everyone is a pro gamer with cat reflexes.
- Do games need more accessibility options? Yes. You basically reach more public with that.
- Do games should play _your way_? No.

There is a reason why #Expedition33 does not force you to parry all attacks.

Yukon Arctic Ultra organizers have to blaze their own trail this year
Yukon's famously challenging winter ultra race has some added difficulties this year — primarily for the event's organizers. With no Yukon Quest sled dog race breaking the trail this year, they have to do it on their own.

WIST Quotations Jan 15

A quotation from Thomas Carlyle

His Religion is not an easy one: with rigorous fasts, lavations, strict complex formulas, prayers five times a day, and abstinence from wine, it did not “succeed by being an easy religion.” As if indeed any religion, or cause holding of religion, could succeed by that! It is a calumny on men to say that they are roused to heroic action by ease, hope of pleasure, recompense, — sugar-plums of any kind, in this world or the next! In the meanest mortal there lies something nobler.

Thomas Carlyle (1795-1881) Scottish essayist and historian
Lecture (1840-05-08), “The Hero as Prophet,” Home House, Portman Square, London

WIST Quotations Dec 26

A quotation from Samuel Johnson

To strive with difficulties, and to conquer them, is the highest human felicity; the next is, to strive, and deserve to conquer: but he whose life has passed without a contest, and who can boast neither success nor merit, can survey himself only as a useless filler of existence; and if he is content with his own character, must owe his satisfaction to insensibility.

Samuel Johnson (1709-1784) English writer, lexicographer, critic
Essay (1753-11-27), The Adventurer, No. 111
