Hell and Hell vs DMD

[Kennyboi]

Anyone else struggled way less with Hell and Hell than DMD? Granted during DMD I never used red orbs or gold orbs and tried over and over again until I learned Boss patterns or figured another way.

Dante's and V's mission were especially easy on Hell and Hell. Nero wasn't too hard either, but I kept ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ up with buster occasionally and got myself animation locked when I shouldn't have.

From what I've been hearing, HaH enemies are from SoS rather than DMD.

[Kennyboi]

yes, the setting and difficulty of Hell and Hell was similar to SoS as far as I can tell.

DMD is tough, but I think HaH is way harder, in DMD you can revive yourself as much as you have gold orb and continue, in HaH mode you need to be very good at evading attacks otherwise 4 hits = restart mission

[Artifex]

Only restart mission? I thought it would restart the entire playthrough for HaH lolz. oh happy days! the task seems feasible now!

Once you've made it through DMD you have a much better understanding of when to go in and when to play it safe. I found DMD pretty hard my first time through, but after Hell and Hell which wasn't too bad I thought DMD was a lot less challenging than the first time.

H&H is way easier. By the time you are able to beat DMD Beating SoS by only getting hit 3 times isn't actually that bad.

S ranking H&H is the actual hard part and it's definitely harder than S ranking DMD. However this game has so much cheese in it that S ranking even H&H isn't as hard as you might think it is.

Nero can spam Break Age abilities to beat bosses really quickly. Dante levels are easy mode thanks to DR. Faust and V has only 4 mandatory levels.

S ranking DMD feels harder.
You can get hit but you die in 3 hits anyway.

HaH feel way easier than DMD...
Probably cause you'll most likely improve your playing a lot in DMD.

Some missions are ridiculous in HaH.
You learn how to skip fights as you have to get high ranks in many fights.

Mission 8 was annoying to do on HaH but at least your rank doesn't matter for the boss fight.

HaH mode uses the SOS difficulty settings as far as I can tell. In other words, enemies don't appear to devil trigger or have any of there DMD settings. I have not cleared all of HaH mind you, only half way through, but the half i did do that is the case.
