The game is too easy

Please stop lowering the difficulty for the normies. It needs to be harder. What happened to the original vision?

I agree that the game got easier with this update. To keep it fun I tried to be “under-leveled” most of the time, I manage to beat the last boss at lvl 25 or 26 I think. Difficult games increases the people’s frustration, atm I guess it was a decision to adjust for a wider audience without much of a hassle.

If they want to sell the game, it needs to be more accessible for casuals. this does not mean it should get easier, but QoL balances. I think they are in a good spot right now, but need to tweak some things to make it fair for the regular everyday normal guy.

They should really offer a “your game, your choice” option (setting the realm difficulty with a slider).
I can understand that the game should be accessible to as many people as possible.

But if everyone complains that it’s too hard, even though it was “perfect,” it will alienate a large portion of players, because creating good builds makes the game seem too easy.

If you only cater to people who have trouble playing “well,” it would be truly unfair to players who are looking for a challenge.

Don’t need to make it harder but ya stop making it easier. It’s ok if a game isn’t for everyone.

Or just add a story mode where nothing matters and you can walk through the story with no effort.

There are more many, many, many more normies who will buy this game. Catering to the ‘hardcore’ is never viable, there’s just never enough of them, all it does is end games.

So keep catering to the normies, it’s what sells.

They went full indie, then got review bombed by casual scumbags and now they need to make it sell.

Money talks, vision … well … vision doesn’t pay the bills.

This game could have a bit more challenge and depth and still be fun without going hardcore.

Also there were still lot of hardcore games that did well like the dark soul series, bloodborne, sekiro, Lies of P, and etc.

Elden ring is probably the easiest souls like Fromsoft made and its still challenging and was GOTY before.

So I’m sure if NRTW tried to patch the game and make it more challenging it could still be fun in different ways…I could see the combat update thats coming might make more room for that too maybe :D…

The Story mode should be accessible for everyone, they can pump up the endgame for hardcore players. the thing is, with “endgame” gear, you can slap everyone easily, so they need to tweak endgame difficult maybe more.

looking forward to 4 player mode btw
