Guild Wars 2

ability to set it so that i get down leveled more.

Maybe at character creation i have a “hard mode” option where i get autoleveled down more.
Benefits… XP bonus? magic bonus? account achievements?
Maybe the mode has to be bought via gem store.

I support this idea. If you feel the game is not hard enough for you , you should be able to make it harder. Most single-player games have a Nightmare mode.

There is a situation where if i want harder content then i need to do dungeons or go to higher level areas.

When i outlevel the content i lose my player driven hardmode.

*Selects Hardmode – Levels with a friend – profit

I actually prefer the opposite, I want to level up come back and just 1 hit everything that used to take me a few mins to clear because I want the mats and I don’t want feel like I am starting a new character all over again when entering a lower area zone.

Hardmode? Try a Necromancer with a FleshGolem. That little kitten pull everything, but when you are in trouble do nothing.
