Difficulty

[Lithium]

Hello!

Great game and im enjoying it, but it feels like the difficulty is extremely hard even on normal! Is it just me or is it much much much harder than the first game?

Think it's just you! Probably not the answer you want, but I wouldn't say it's particularly harder than the first game. Although I'd possibly say I find myself doing more things using shadow mode rather than being able to take guards out one at a time.

It's difficult to say. I am some way into first mission, and it didn't feel particularly challenging. So far it feels like ST/Desperados3 mid/late game mission.

There is very little reflex required for this game (you have the Shadow mode for that), meaning the only thing left is figuring out HOW to solve the puzzle. In the original game, on several occasions I felt the game was impossible (on hard settings), but eventually I cracked all of them. All you need to do is taking out that first guard; the rest of them fall apart like sands.

I just finished doing the first two missions (and a small task in between) at maximum difficulty. Yes, the expansion is really more difficult than the original game. But this is great! I got great pleasure, and left the finale for tomorrow)) Many thanks to the developers for such a wonderful map-pack!

just you, i feel like is much more easier than their original game, i mean...is it really that difficult, if you feel difficult, maybe try to learn and observe....this expansion is literally so easy that i feel like is just like is almost another developer making this game...totally not challenging at all

playing on hard and it doesn't feel any harder than it was before (completed d3\st original on hard too)

I finished the first one on hardest difficulty too, solid snaking around with trying to sneak by
everywhere with as little combat/kills as possible. Distraction and sneaking by. Here it seems very very hard to do, attacking is almost mandatory. Not that it is a bad thing! I do enjoy it.
