Everyone: Wow. Thanks for the update Thresh.
Me: (Looks at Balance changes) Sofia is stronger, Player is weaker, label is weaker, player is weaker, player is weaker, player is weaker, player is weaker, player is weaker, player is weaker. 😕
Welp. I can all ways play on an easier difficulty.
Thanks for the scene updates developers.
...It really ain't a difficult game, my guy. Even when playing one-handed with half of your blood going places that are definitely not your brain. Especially when Nightmare mode gives you insane EXP even for grinding the Forest or Mountains, where very few enemies pose a real threat even at your level.
With even halfway decent stats, Distract is an immensely powerful skill that can essentially "nuh-uh" most boss enemies' movesets. Making it more expensive makes perfect sense. Same with the Favors (Luck builds were utterly busted because of that).
I continue to remain baffled at why people tattle on themselves like this.
EDIT: Plus, losing is half the fun here!!
Everytime I replay the game it's balanced to be harder so it takes a bit extra time to get back to the point I was at previously. I honestly don't see the point. You can just brute force everything. There isn't really any game overs besides that one time I'm aware of. There's even perks designed for losing and still gaining xp. It's NOT a difficult game, yet there is need to balance to make it harder anyway? It's just taking extra time for a time sink. No need for those unless it's a free to play game and you're trying to sell some xp boosts for impatient people.
I was really just playing around with all the nerfs saying I'd play on an easier difficulty. There are a LOT of nerfs if you didn't notice. I'm actually all for the Sofia buff though cause I feel she should be the hardest fight instead of Venefica. I at least think Sofia is supposed to be stronger than her lore wise. Then again, Sofia is still holding back while Venefica is going full power...ish.
And if you're wondering why I replay the game, I actually do test to see how difficult the game is from scratch instead of having a really high level character at all updates from a save file.
Edit: It doesn't seem like I'm the only one that noticed all the energy nerfs either, so get off my back
