That seems extremely stupid. As long as devs are incapable of making standardized difficulty settings, this will be a nightmare. I beat the first Horizon on the hardest difficulty, and had to turn the difficulty down on Forbidden West. If they decided to adjust the difficulty based on my performance in the first game, I wouldn't have gotten more than a couple hours in.

Absolutely. There are a lot of solid reasons that people should be kept in control of their own difficulty levels.

I refuse to purchase or play Fromsoft games anymore if I don't have access to mods, despite absolutely loving their storytelling style. Why? Anyone who reads this immediately knows why.
