Are Video Game's Today Getting too Easy


These day’s video games have been getting very simple in the campaign. What ever happened to three lives and game over. Today I am going to show you five reasons why video games are getting too easy.

1.       In some video games like Call of Duty they have allowed an in-game difficulty change from the start menu. So if there’s a hard part no problem just switch it to easy and you’ll do just fine. If you’re going to beat a game fair keep it at the same difficulty the whole time.

2.       Games are also allowing more co-op things like in Halo where you can do a co-op campaign, this isn’t a bad thing but it can still prove to make the game too easy. Such as if you can’t get past a level why not just call in your friends that are better than you and just finish the job.

3.       Most games have also gotten of the health bar which means when you get shot you can just automatically heal yourself when you’re in cover like in Call of Duty. Battlefield does contain the health bar but your health still will regenerate without a health pack (you heal faster with a health pack). Halo was the only game I have played in a while that you have to find a health pack to heal yourself; the shields will regenerate, just not your initial health.

4.       Games have also started to allow perks which let you see through walls to find where the enemy is. Such as in Halo it is promethean vision that lets you see through walls.

5.       Games also have equipment and kill streak rewards that allow you to see through walls. In Call of Duty there is a sight that allows you to know where the enemy is inside a building. In Medal of Honor Warfighter you can get a kill streak reward that allows you to see through walls, it may be a kill streak reward but it is still unneeded.

So know you see that games today are just getting too easy it could be because the companies that made the game want you to get your money’s worth, which is nice but unnecessary. Do you agree with me? Please post comments. Thank you.
