Best difficulty?

Hey guys,

For those who have played through on both normal and hard, which did you enjoy more?

Do you want to lose out on secret benches? No, stick to normal otherwise it boils down if you care about dying more often and not having icons if enemy’s are suspicious.

You play this game for the story, essentially. Play it on normal first - it still has challenges but it'll let you focus on the story. If you like the game and want to replay afterwards then go harder difficulty to mix things up and get a different experience.

This isn't Elden Ring. Nobody should be playing this to get destroyed to the point where you cry yourself to sleep at night and then have nightmares about the Waterfowl Dance.

But I'd highly recommend playing a Plague Tale: Innocence first. It sounds like you haven't, and that's a big mistake. It's like walking into a movie theatre half way through the movie...

I started on hard, was a OK challenge but ultimate was a disappointment because it was not really any harder, I did not notice ANYTHING harder. On both hard and ultimate I took a few tried for the key fight where you save Arno and the fight after that where you fight in the nebula, that was probably the hardest fight for me did not count the tries on hard with gamepad but with ultimate with mouse it was easier for me and I did not take that many tries.

But but I generally thing the game is too easy for real "hardcore" gamers.

The game has auto aim that you can NOT TURN OFF, let that sink in, even with mouse, even on ultimate dofficutly.

When you get caught the enemy throws you down, you can get back up and just hold the attack button to stun them and run away, that is like way to generous satety net for "ultimate".

The game was designed as a press button to advance story game, the gameplay is pretty trashy and to easy if you really think about it and compare it with other games.

So the "best" is for sure hard because you can not choose ultimate on the first run, that is stupid. I would otherwise say the best is ultimate but, again, its supposedly better detection times for enemies. But that is NOT where the game its difficult in fights where you can not go stealth so they tuned nothing about that.

I am glad I never even tried normal.

i couldn't see difference between normal and ultimate difficulty aka newgame+

Why do people still bring up from soft for difficulty? Heck ninja gaiden is way more difficult.
