Yeah I suppose if you don’t know any combos other than infinitely mashing Y with rebellion / Red Queen, AND you can’t focus all your efforts onto one enemy at a time, AND you can’t avoid some of the most telegraphed attacks in the series, especially with the most generous amount of dodge/jump iframes & recovery in the series at your disposal, the enemies seem pretty tanky then.
I have no doubt that this is your only answer to the topic.
Should note: I don’t think DMD is to hard it’s greatly balanced for the hardest difficulty minus a few enemies I feel are a bit to spongy. Behemoths being one.
Personally, I'd be fine with it if there were more difficulties in general. SoS feels downright easy once fully upgraded, but DMD is an absolutely massive leap. I feel like there should be a difficulty like Very Hard from DMC3 that fills the gap and has the hard hitting enemies and increased aggro, but not the sponginess. Let people have the traditional DMD but include something just a little more forgiving as well.
Nothning in the 4th game was this tanky.
The problem with Angelos is they already had a kind of DT on other difficulties. When they enter their glowing red state near death they gain damage resistance, which stacks with the Devil Trigger resistance, quadrupling their health. It wasn't as big of a problem before DMD because they became tankier, but also were still able to be stunned for extended periods. Now they have a gigantic health bar *and* are harder to stagger.
Personally, I could deal with the health if DTs on enemies weren't permanent. If I recall correctly, in DMC4 you could run out the timer on the enemy's Devil Trigger and then continue fighting them. I'd like to see that return so that boss fights aren't such massive slogs and things like Angelos won't be quite so obnoxious. Some enemies like Riots also like to pop their DTs extremely early in the fight, taking what is normally a common enemy and turning it into a nightmare. Playing the poke game with hard to stagger mobs that are all super tanky isn't particularly fun *or* stylish.
