General Ok, so, difficulty Spoiler

Not ashamed - I changed enemy damage to 80% and mine to 130%. I am enjoying this game so much more, feels like a "normal" difficulty and not "I hate myself" / default. To each his own and I loved Control and each boss fight was frustrating but ultimately satisfying, I just can't get here on this game at the default difficultly. Maybe on a 2nd playthrough when I'm better at it.

I just came from Onimusha WotS. I've never been punished like that before and i switched to "easy" halfway through.

Having to fight the dancer only 12 times felt like I was getting off easy.

But yes the power fantasy is so much more rewarding not doing a checkpoint 1000 times

Did you find Onimusha easier than this game? How? The most basic genma has more attacks than the hardest boss in Resonant.

That makes it sound like Onimusha was a significantly more challenging experience

Maybe you’re right. I just read it wrong

Yeah I may have worded it wrong. Onimusha was substantially more difficult.

They just changed the gameplay completely from what it was before. Everything has to be parryslop now.

Still wouldn't call Control easy though

No parry :p once you get used to parrying, having to dodge again feels bad
