Decided I'm gonna create my own difficulty settings.
Easy is now really easy.
Normal is normal
There's now a tradeoff between Nightmare and Insanity, insanity is longer what I consider artificially inflated difficulty. See it as having a perk that gives you +25% damage, but take double damage in return.

Also added a slomo mechanics, because it's awesome and game is pretty...

Bindings=(Name="XboxTypeS_RightShoulder", Command="SwitchEmotion |slomo 0.5 | OnRelease slomo 1.0 |TriggerDodge true | OnRelease TriggerDodge false | DiscardWatch | CycleFloatInputRB")

Basically what the above does is slow you down while holding the dodge button. Makes platform and combat more interesting, and you regain back a bit of that percision jumping in the orginal Alice. The gamespeed goes back to normal when you release the button so if you want to tap it, hold it for 0.5 seconds or for the full dodge to gain a few miliseconds of reaction time, that's your choice.

Bindings=(Name="XboxTypeS_LeftThumbstick",Command="OnRelease ToggleCloseFollowCamera | TriggerHysteria |slomo 0.5 | OnRelease slomo 1.0")

The above is just for when I want to enjoy the moment, it's on the left thumb button.

AliceGame.ini
[AliceGame.AliceGameInfo]

DamageMultiplierArray[0]=0.5
DamageMultiplierArray[1]=1.0
DamageMultiplierArray[2]=1.5
DamageMultiplierArray[3]=2.0
AliceWeaponDamageMultiplier[0]=1.5
AliceWeaponDamageMultiplier[1]=1.0
AliceWeaponDamageMultiplier[2]=1.0
AliceWeaponDamageMultiplier[3]=1.25

Ok messed enough with the game, just gonna play now.

Definitely Nightmare! It's only hard when you don't have anything upgraded, god I was raging for days because there was a certain Hatter's Domain part where I got owned all the time.

I started the game on Hard since this kind of battle system is what i like the most in video games !! Its a real good challenge,cant wait to pass it and put it on Nightmare !

Checkpoints started annoying the crap out of me so I put it back to Normal.
Normal and Hard has pretty good scaling and upgrading weapons does make a huge difference.

It should also be important to note that you can change the difficulty back anytime. Playing the game on Nightmare doesn't really make the game better, it makes it worst because of the checkpoints.

I started on Hard. 5 hours in and I find it challenging but fun. Only died once or twice. Im pretty used to action games like Bayonetta. DMC, etc..

Game seems to be well balanced around hard.

I am playing with "nightmare" difficulty. Yes it is hard as automatic save does not happen until you kill so many enemies in some part s of the game, but I can never enjoy a game with medium or easy difficulty. And it is definitely doable.

This thread is more than a year old. Where the hell did you find it? It can't have been on the first page...

I recommend easy. The key is to try all the weapons and get use to switching between them. Easy gives you the time to explore, which is a bigger part of the game then the combat.

You can always do a new game plus on nightmare when you are better at combat and have all the weapons

Seriously, stop it.
