It'd be like playing SC2 with invulnerability cheats on. If you're looking for a thrill/challenge, Hardcore is where it's at.
Comparing Softcore to cheating, very definitive language and nowhere does it mention 'I think' or 'It is my opinion that'.
This is why I think you come across as elitist, a different choice of words in the future and a softer approach will convey your ideas a lot better without any attitude, whether it is implied or not.
