Difficulty Levels?

[acetiff12]

I recently started playing Horizon: Zero Dawn because it was interesting to watch my husband play it. However, I noticed his struggle with boss fights and that a single hit from enemies often took out a large chunk of his HP.

I was reluctant to try it at first because it looked hard. But then I found out I could choose from a selection of difficulty levels. I picked the easiest and started having fun.

That made me notice that when it comes to combat-heavy games, I'm always grateful for the option to pick the easiest game mode.

What difficulty level do you usually play games on? Do you like that it's an option?

I'll usually start on normal unless it's clear beforehand that the game is going to be really difficult, and if I run into trouble, I'll switch to easier modes if I can. If normal feels too easy or if I'm in the mood for a challenge/want to complete a particular difficulty level for an achievement or something, I'll amp things up.
