Legend and Cursed difficulty

[Purpleetea]

Is anyone playing on these difficulties? How guys are the challenge compared to Shadow Tactics and Despereados 3? Thanks

I'm playing on Cursed for all missions and challenges. So far it feels a little bit easier than Shadow Tactics and Desperados 3, but not by much.

Been playng on legend and it definetley feels easier, though it depends on the team. The missions are also shorter but I think I prefer that

The game is to easy. I play on cursed and have limited the saves to two per map. So it is a bit thrilling and parts of the crew die what makes the game more interesting.

I think you need to play without saving too much if you want to enjoy a challenge yes. Especially since alarms aren't a run killer in this game anymore (usually).

much easier. Most of levels are like the diffculty of Despereados 3 DLC level 2.

I'm playing on Normal with more enemies. The beginning is realllllly easy and not because the characters can easily build so many random strategies. I feel that there are not many enemies or there is not much complexity behind the enemies. It's quite common to find enemies alone or without so much complexity to kill them.
for example, the enemy who's a sniper, is so easy to kill him. I will give the devs a free advice: let say that there were some objects on the map that if the player goes near them it make the sniper aware of your presence, obviously the player can see them or find a way to find them without activate them.

I'm liking the game and specially the characters, it would be nice that it was a bit more complex, at least the beginning. Maybe when I reach the end of the game I would imagine becoming more difficult.

Playing on Cursed.

Game starts out on the easier side, with all the options you have. Once I've reached island 7, then the map layouts, guard variety and overlapping lines of sight do make things more challenging. From that experience, I expect the endgame map difficulties to be fairly similar to their previous games.

I do more than needed on the maps, at least on the first mission on them where I hunt down the named NPCs and try to take out most high-rank NPCs that I've found are linked to badges. And I refused to let alarms go through, instead reloading and trying another way.

The moments of characters is so fast , game is easy if you played previous games.

I have never got stuck anywhere there is always unique solution to your puzzle which i like.

Playing on Cursed and by default it's times easier than D3 for me. However, I've found challenging and enjoyable to solo maps by a single crew mate having others waiting at landing point for some rare cases to be involved. This way you have puzzles-like feeling (which many ppl love D3 and ST for), however the downside is lack of teamwork combinations during gameplay, - and I hope this not will be the case for the later campaign missions.

It's not hard to play on cursed.
Generally, it's easier than D3 as it's much easier to bypass the guards and get critical positions.
There're many scenarioes requiring multiple disposal at the end of act 2. But not so many time intense actions as D3 - most of the characters didn't have the capability of double killing, though I've used multiple shadow modes sometimes to coordinate distracts and attacks.
Sometimes, with not very good team composition, I'd even intentionally trigger the alarm by force killing some guards at nasty positions and then dash or teleport to safety.
Much fewer s/l than D3 for sure, as I've constantly fought under alarm. It's fun.

I play on Legend and it's still feels much easier than ST and D3. A bit challenging on some circumstances but that's it.
I don't know, maybe the characters are too overpowered or I'm already used to highest difficulty on ST and D3.

I wanted to play on Cursed difficulty at first but there's warning that it's not recommended for first run. So I go for Legend.

I went Legend on my first playthrough, it does feel slightly easier than D3 because the abilities of the Cursed are slightly more powerful, but the later missions are still plenty challenging on Legend.
