Nightmare difficulty...
There is no way in hell (pun intended) that the game devs played this game on this difficulty... It's waaay too difficult. Too many enemies, maps/rooms/halls etc etc are way too small. Enemies deal waaaay too much damage. Why do they all have aimbots??? How tf am I supposed to strafe and dodge their attacks when they have aimbots and their attacks lock onto me?????

Just don't let them hit you. Easy trick that the developers don't want you to know.

Base game? DLCs? Master levels?

If it is too difficult for you, play on lower difficulty.
Like someone else mentioned, just dont get hit (and to make your life easier, learn how to kill demons faster too, learn the weapons and each demon weakness to each weapon and use accordingly, also never stop while fighting and pay attention to your surroundings).

Knightmare is very doable, but Ultra is the problem, to not die is really hard (doable but not for me, never wanted to achieve such feat).

Keep practicing and you will get it down eventually. One day you'll feel like nightmare is a breeze and wonder why there isn't a higher difficulty.

You'll get there partner - just stick with it.

Sooner or later you will get there

I have come to the conclusion that I am still way to ♥♥♥♥ for it and will problaby stay that way. Despite completing the game 2 times on ultra violent, some failed tries on nightmare, and now breezing through my third round on UV nightmare is still too tough for some inexplicable reason. One would thought I would already be there...

Then again I also think most games are most enjoyable on the difficulty below the hardest even if I get good enough to not fail at it.

This is simply skill issue. A lot of players have finished this on Nightmare. Just play on a lower difficulty first then move up once you have improved.

Also, there are no aimbots. If you are pertaining to the lock-on rockets by the Revenant or the Doom Hunter, just use dash to disengage the lock-on.

Myself included (and I am very casual).

Very much "always keep moving" but also dont just move linearly, keep moving up and down, sideways, try to avoid to stay on the ground for long . . .

Nightmare is easy once you know what you're doing, keep at it.

difficulty or not, game is still a mess and just rather pleases very shallow gamers than actual gamers who prefer are mroe in depth gaming experience.
It is more rather a dance dance revolution button pressing experience, and people like to perfect the dance ritual than actually look at it from a outside the box situation.

Shallow gamers? You will find players with hundreds of hours who are still improving - is that not a clear sign of a deep gaming experience?

There's quite some points where not getting hit is very problematic. Like that fire pit on cultist base with few Mancubus

Think strategically, you just need to nuke one manc and then the second one can be kited forever around the central structure. A cool way to do that is to have 3 pips of chainsaw fuel, but you can also use ice bomb and Lock On Burst or some other high DPS weapon or combo.
The strategy to move in circle of ten meters with 2 tyrants and numerous others respawning...
At a point i questioned myself,...are they serious.
If its called hardness beeing jailed with 20 monsters in a room with 10 squaremeters...ok.
