Game is Too Easy
The enemy AI is dumb to say the least. It almost looks like it's not being given enough CPU power from the server to make decisions quickly enough (which also would explain the atrocious pathfinding).

Have a feeling a lot of people are going to get bored of this game pretty quickly. Once the new game feel wears off you kinda realize the combat becomes mindless outside of a few scripted boss encounters.

So far it has been painfully easy. I was able to do one of the big boy bosses while not really looking at the screen because I was watching the new episode of The Boys. It doesn't need to be Elden Ring levels of difficult but not toddler levels of easy either.

yep it doesnt get much harder I've played one of the betas for about 25 hours did the entire story and not a single difficult PvE encounter in the open world/dungeons/bosses this game is mainly for PvP but even then that has its issues also

Dont start complaining that its too easy, Last time people complain it was too hard and they nerfed it. So now you want it to go back to being hard again?

there is a limit to how easy it is, it's ridiculous a 3 year old child can play without dying once

yeah I'm aware it's a shame they nerfed it so hard to be absolutely braindead so even the most casual players that have never played a video game can complete it

The enemy AI is SOOOOOO DUMB that they even not attack you unless you hit them, they need to improve that, this is boring.

yeah i didnt like the nerf but people kept complaining it was too difficult and that they die everytime. Trust me you shouldve seen how hard this game was, even tho it was challenging i enjoyed it. But majority didnt

They need to find a happy medium, the current AI is awful. The game is essentially a building simulator/outfit collector with combat as an afterthought now.

Yes, it's time for you to switch to a different game.

Blame the seasonal model. It has helped turned every aspect of this game into a sad joke. It's why the progression feels meaningless, it's why the game is so ridiculously easy, it's why they literally provide you with food, drink, and medicine through a daily claim menu in what was supposed to be a "survival" game, and it's why you have little pokemon creatures warping around gathering more materials for you each day than you could probably use in ten seasons.

Everything in this game is now designed around pushing you through the content as quickly as possible, as if the world is ending in 6 weeks, because it is.

I get it.. some people are having fun, but at least some of that is due to ignorance. They're unaware that Once Human used to have a lot more depth and was much more challenging. That it more closely resembled those earlier videos on the Steam store page, and that it was a lot more fun to play. They have nothing to compare the current version with, they can't see the direction this game has gone over time, or the extent at which a seasonal model has decimated what could have been a great, long-term MMO.

I was certain that after watching a video of a player using an AR on the balloons boss in the Delta area, that I was going to be in for a painful encounter. I was low on ammo for my shotgun, but plenty of arrows for my crossbow. Hit "E", then acted like I was at a carnival popping balloons. I think it might have been quicker than the AR video, as he was shooting wildly and with a higher attack rate. The boss on the rocks in that other reality was a LITTLE challenging, but easy for even me.

CB2 Had it perfectly balanced for the challenge to game play ratio, the AI might not of super smart tho they played a lot better then what we have now sadly.

I remember the Greed boss had been a challenge even for those who knew what to do, not a super hard one but it felt more like a boss, you had to shoot his weapon, then it would drop onto the ground and then you would have to use that in order to kill him, now you just use what ever and he dies.

In CB2 you had to have parties to be able to actually do anything against the bosses, tho after you had your good gear you could solo a bit easier, tho still had to play it smart.

Sadly as much as I enjoy this game, yes you can cheese most of the fights allowing you to survive most if not all of the bosses without getting hit 1 time and or without getting knocked down even if taking a lot of hits to the face.

I doubt we will get anything close to CB2, it is sad on how the game devs listen to people who will probably never play this game at launch and or will now play it, then complain to them selves on how easy it is before they quit, look for another game and then complain there and continue the dilute future games till there is 0 challenge left.

You know, they changed it so you don't even have to shoot its arm/gun anymore. He just seems to drop it after reaching specific health percentages. Was it really necessary to dumb that down and automate it? The damage numbers popping up already clearly show when we're hitting a weak point. Players were capable of figuring it out.. heaven forbid they might have to try more than once.

It's so frustrating how much easier everything is now.
