Is this a single player game? Then cool, 100%, love it. Co-op? Probably fine, but I'd have some implementation questions.
Pvp? I ate the biggest backlash I've had on the Internet on another forum when I argued that players shouldn't be able to unilaterally make the game easier for just themselves in a competitive game, and I'm still mad about it.
To some extent. But why can’t you just match those with like-for-like accessibly features turned on?
That's probably fine. Like if you want to play with triple iframes you can play with other people that have triple iframes (or who said they're ok with that). I just don't think you should be able to adjust your iframes whenever you want. Like, not in the middle of a match you're losing.
I don't know how to solve match making if you have a lot of those settings. Like if you can change iframes, parry frames, max health, max stamina, max incoming damage, min outgoing damage, and so on, that's an explosive set of variables. You'd be lucky to find someone with your exact settings. Which is maybe fine? Maybe most people would use the defaults.
But the last time I had this conversation, some guy was adamant he should be able to play with me even if he has his settings tweaked to be nigh indestructible.
