i hate hard games :(

That's all under assumption that only big ass companies make lackluster easy video games which by the way is not true, not even by a long shoot. You would also need to ignore the fact that at least 70% of games offer several levels of difficulty, unless you were referring to companies such as Zynga and PopCap all along which aim specific group of players to begin with.

So smaller companies will die too? I don't see your point here lol

EDIT



Or these people who like gaming will just try harder, people have always been playing/buying games, decreasing the difficulty didnt boost sales, just like increasing it shouldn't..

Game sales have increased over the years, all the money is in casual gaming. A lot of companies would suffer drastically without that market. But if games get shittier controls and gameplay, I'd hope a lot of people would quit buying them. If they got more difficult in a good way, hopefully some people would stick with it, but even then, there would be a drop. Decreasing wont hurt sales since it opens the market to more people, but making them more difficult closes off a lot.

I love how a smart ass quip has turned into an in depth discussion :1
