I just hope dificiulty settings will be the same as video settings ...
Profiles: easy / normal / hard / hardcore / custom ... (no matter if you want to call it easy, or story mode ... w/e)
And then there will be things that you can adjust to your liking.

I mean, i really like some ideas, but i borrow and example here:

So i could choose "story mode" for dificiulty profile ... and then, when i decide that is not exactly what i had in mind ... i would disable AC reduction, set damage back to 100%, etc. etc. ... and yet keep things as unlimited rests, or no random encounters, etc. etc.

I certainly hope there wont be just single button to set everything without any chance to interfere. :-/
I hope game industry evolved since that was standard.
