Valor Mortis Difficulty: Easy Mode and Assist Options
Steam does not declare difficulty levels. Four reported assists address controls and retry friction; they are not an easy difficulty preset.
Is there an easy mode?
Confirmed. The Steam listing currently declares its difficulty-level accessibility flag false. Playability without quick-time events does not mean parries have no timing requirement.
Reported assist settings
Reported. The independent settings guide lists these options. Check the wording in your platform's menu.
| Option | Reported purpose |
|---|---|
| Target Lock | Keep the camera on a selected enemy. |
| Combat Assist | Help track melee targets. |
| Instant Restart | Reduce retry interruption. |
| Quick Cast | Reduce transmutation confirmation. |
Diagnose the difficulty
Confirmed. The demo feedback response separates readability, boss progression and performance.
Inference. An unseen attack calls for camera adjustment; an unreachable input calls for remapping; a timing mistake calls for practice. A setting is not a verified boss-health reduction. See combat fundamentals.
