Pro Syndrome

The Dark Souls community is also really bad about this. If you're not playing it using only starter gear, while blindfolded, on a DDR pad, then you're just a filthy casual who needs to 'git gud'. Not to mention the absolute apoplexy they muster at the mere suggestion that Souls might benefit from having an 'Easy' difficulty setting.

And it all seems to boil down to this idea they have that someone else having a slightly easier time with the game than them somehow 'takes away' from their own accomplishments. I've never understood that mindset, or what distortions someone would have to possess to consider it reasonable.
