Is difficulty in games ever an accessibility issue? If so, when?

It's all about how a gamer wants to play that is built from how the game was developed to be. If it's set to be that difficult, it's accessibility will be hard too.

Yeap, it simply set how they feel like and not what the gamers set to play. Because the game developers set the difficulty without contacting anyone when implementing it.

Like when they obviously make a game to that too hard to play, it's when gamers would be very selective as to what to play and what not to play.

Yes, some gamers will prefer to go play the hard game like that. While others wouldn't go for it, they'll simply stay put and play lesser difficult game.

I love playing hard games, but not when it is made extremely hard. Because, it will shake me off, and make me unhappy, because the AI will take advantage of me.

It's the kind of games that gets to teach you a lot of things while you are playing unlike the easy games.

The only video game I didn't find much discomfort playing first time is 'MGP. The game is made easy, but the AI competitors makes it stern contest for any gamer.

It toughens you up when you get into playing very difficult video games with the kind of challenges it's going bring up.

Yeah, it will improve my gaming strength, makes me to play stronger even if I'm playing with an expert gamer, I can compete favourably, and not being outplayed freely.

It's actually how I felt when I was playing Dark Souls. The lesson the games taught are still fresh in my memories. 

[Heatman]

There is no way you would expect that kind of knowledge to go that easily. What you get put through when playing will stay with you most likely forever.

It is actually the reason why I prefer to play video games that are very much difficult in it's general gameplay, that I would have to adjust if I want something a little bit easier.

Playing difficult game makes it look real, and keeps you competing favourably with AI, and not being one sided. I hate one sided video game affair.

You can't play an easy game and play difficult games and have them rated as the same thing. It's not possible at all.

Forza has some great accessibility features to help out with the difficulty of the game actually which I love. For example, I believe they have a setting where you don't have to steer, it's just a case of accelerating and braking at the right times.

It is quite nice that they thought of including features like that.

That's actually a part where they seem to make it a little bit easier for gamers with that racing feature. I didn't like it that much as it's much predictable.
