I’m all for easy difficulty options in games, but I’m never, ever going to use them. I just can’t motivate myself to play if I’m not accomplishing something.
This is the thing, everyone is different. What is difficult for some, will be easy for others, and it will even flip for the same people on different games.
The best option is having a wide array of difficulty options. In stone games I get bored of it’s too easy, in others I get bored of it’s too hard.
I tend to err on ‘normal’ to ‘slightly more difficult than normal’. But some games I don’t want difficulty at all because I’m there for the ride.
Well that’s not true either. I mean sometimes, sure, but in general if you know what you want and you work towards it, you can accomplish things and be rewarded.
For me, good story and/or fun gameplay is the accomplishment, whether it’s difficult or not. If it’s too difficult, I just won’t bother. I don’t have time for that.

So you never watch movies because there you also don’t accomplish anything?
No, but I’d rather watch a movie than play a game that feels too easy.
Do you feel like you’re accomplishing something by playing a difficult game?
Personally I do not, and that’s fine. I play games to take a break from accomplishing things.

Absolutely, yes. Good video games have a reward structure that real life is lacking.
In real life, you just get fucked over and over with no rewards.
Some of us aren’t even have sex either, I just get no rewards.
I know a cheat for that! Try dating apps. The other dating apps. 😏
Or just meet me in the alley behind the bar

If you have enough money to start with, then yes.
Have you seen the world lately?
DOOM and DOOM eternal on nightmare mode hell yeah

As a fan of logic puzzle games (Baba is you being imo the best of these) difficulty levels are a foreign concept ;)
Meanwhile Baba is You is one of the hardest fucking games I’ve ever played.
