I feel you, OP. There are some games I feel I'm really good at, and some games I would not be able to complete without an easy setting, but would enjoy getting the story or atmosphere of. Watching a Let's Play might be fun, but it's not the same kind of fun. Furthermore, just, like... by the nature of (my) disability, something I can do well one day I might not be able to do well another-- fine motor control and reflexes are a crapshoot, and how well I can focus depends on a lot of factors. But I grew up playing video games and I love them, and I don't plan on letting those things stop me from enjoying a hobby. Easy mode means I can enjoy a game on a bad day-- the kind of day when I want the distraction most.

It sucks that there are so many people who are vocal about being jerks over it, and man, I get not wanting to publicize being on easy mode on anything, but even when it's not a question of skill or ability, like... a lot of gamers are busy adults with many things to do, so I feel like it really shouldn't be stigmatized if some people just want to be able to cruise through a game without wasting time/increasing frustration, like... yeah, hobbies are supposed to be fun.
