I hate that. I don't really replay a game right away after finishing it.

BEat it on normal to unlock hard. Beat hard for expert

I can't remember the name of the game and I know it isn't as complex as it sounds but it is possible if implemented correctly

Fuck!

I hate this game

Smash Bros
Works in God Hand since you have to work your way up and the trick is getting it up and keeping it up. Challenge yourself to do better, or wimp out and grovel for mercy like a little bitch.
nu-Killer Instinct has shadow mode which does exactly that
>game literally laughs at you and sends you down a difficulty level if you get hit too much
Amiibo fighters don't learn shit. It's all a placebo.
>Boss can stunlock you
Final nemesis boss in Re3make is almost impossible to beat because of this
>Only somewhat difficult part of the game is suddenly in the middle of the game instead of getting gradually more difficult
>So difficult you have to go back to the earlier levels to farm extra lives
Was Max Payne 1 the first game to have this shit?
Crackdown 3 was pretty bad at that
>play racing game
>even though it is only the beginning few races, the adaptive AI already has every race basically being a 1v1 where you're half a mile ahead of the rest of the pack
Fuck you NFS I dropped the game after only 5 or 6 races because the AI was absolute bullshit
>Higher difficulty is just the AI cheating
>The game is now about figuring out how to exploit the AI
I'm not sure if CTR Nitro-fuled has adaptive difficulty, but it does suffer from 1st place being 5+ seconds ahead of anyone else.
