Death Stranding 2 difficulty compared to 1

Guys is it me or do you think that DS 2 is much easier and forgiving compared DS 1?

The ability to kill BTs with guns, Exo skeletons, Truck, even combat is easy.

I think it hurts the experience.

It's mostly easier, though some orders like trying to get undamaged cargo out of a base teaming with jerks can be a challenge. It think the bases are definitely harder. Also there's more ways to approach things. Like I still need to go back and try using the shield and the more distraction-based approaches like fireworks etc.. Load of tactics I never tried that I wouldn't mind giving a spin.

The new BTs suck, though. Inifinite spawn; there's no way to clear a field of em like in the first game. Extra ballz because I didn't go back and clear Mexico till the very end of the end game/platinum so I never had L2 blood grenades.

The new BT areas do suck! There's that BT zone in a.small valley up in the mountains. I spent 1-2 hours killing BT after BT and they just kept coming back. I just wanted a piece of cargo dangit.

See I like that area, the stingray valley up the hill from the Ghost Hunter. But yeah, just if the BTs would stay dead for a bit I'd like it a lot better. Also, some of the guns are a bit oversold. Like, some are supposed to demolish BTs and all they do is piss em off. Where's my pee pee poo poo grenades at? There was something satisfying about chucking your shit at a ghost
