*goes to retry checkpoint*
Game: Having some trouble?
Me:
Game: I couldn't help noticing that you've been dying a lot recently...

Me:
Game: But don't forget...
Me:
Game: You can change the difficulty at any time in the in game menu
Me: SHUT THE FUKK UP GAME
Game:....
Me:
Game:.....
I did not pay money to get condescended to by a gotdamn menu system
Yes, I know it's hard, that's why I picked "Hard" mode

Anyone falling for those prompts in the checkpoint era of gaming
