I fucking hate that Apex Legends doesn't have a "peaceful" difficulty. Can't we all just get along?

You sound ridiculous because you're making a cartoonishly bad faith argument where you pretend not having good difficulty options is a genre.

"Git gud or die" literally is a genre. It's called soulslike.

Also "every game should have difficulty options" and "every game should be a survival crafter" are both fundamentally "every game should be what I like."

You can set a difficulty option to the default, what it would be if there weren't a choice. Changing the genre of a game isn't generally in the settings menu.

"Soulslike" is an absurdly nebulous term that just means "hard." It isn't a genre. It gets applied to games of every conceivable genre based solely on their difficulty. Battletoads is a Soulslike. Path of Exile is a Soulslike. Dead Cells is a Soulslike. Never mind that all of Fromsoft's Souls games are specifically action-adventure RPGs, which is a genre.
