So, Expert Difficulty is Broken.

[Nihil]

It's scaled way too high compared to Adept. It's at least 3-4x scaling. Should only be, at the most, double or 1.5 imo.

Expert was always super ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ hard. It's kept the original difficulty, just play the next lower one.

Adept is hilariously easy, expert is challenging but fun so far.

[JackSlader]

Master is crazy just like the original game, i'm sitting on the ledge grinding down two rats, takes me about 15 min to kill 2 rats with flare.

Remaster only visually, gameplay wise they haven't done ♥♥♥♥ but changing up a few names.

[Pruciak]

There is no sweet spot with the difficulty settings. Adept is walk in the park easy, Expert is use everything you have and you're probably still dying. It'd be nice if there was a difficulty where you take about 10 hits and they take about 10 hits instead of Adept where they take 3-5 hits and you take about 20 and expert where you take about 3 hits and they take 20-30.

There should be a middle ground, that and difficulty sliders were a thing in the original, not set numbers. 3x damage taken and .6x damage dealt is too much of a change from adept's 1.0x all around.

Yeah no, not when you're using spells. I have to cast current level spells like 8+ times to kill something. Spell isn't bad, it 1-2 shots on adept, Expert is just not scaled properly.

Yeah no, can't do that. That's just so miserable. I tried master for 1 minute, I got two shot by an archer.

You're lying. Plain and simple. Master is 5x damage taken and .2x damage dealt. You literally have to hit someone 5 times to deal the same damage as 1 hit in adept.

Stop trying to look cool.

There's a great mod out right now that fixes this. Vanilla difficulty is 3.0x damage recieved / 0.6x damage done. This mod fixes it. Tested by me and others and it works great.

No? It's a balancing issue. It shouldn't be 3x taken and .6x damage dealt, that's literally Skyrim on Legendary. They got rid of the sliders and added some bogus set system that scales ridiculously high and low.

I wish I could, but I can't get the achievements if I download that.

Yeah, sure bud. Whatever yo say. "Managing" isn't how I wanna play a game. That's when I wanna do a challenge run, not feel like the game is abysmally easy or ridiculously unfun hard one step higher.
