MODERATORS
I don't disagree with you, but a lot of people, when presented with new game mechanics, don't have the time to spend "getting gud".
I know that if I were to start playing, for instance, Hollow Knight today, rather than at its release (cleared Pantheon of Hollownest), I'd likely have to put it down or install a nail damage increase mod – I have kids now; no time to grind at bosses to learn the patterns.
