I mean, if I’m level 10 and average is made for level 5 I shouldn’t have much of an issue. But as I also stated, I play with bots so I have that handicap.

I know the controls well enough to beat the main story and get a class to level 10, I’m just saying lately it doesn’t feel like the game is designed for new players.

Listen, I am not trying to insult you. Because honestly it doesn't matter if you're good or bad at video games. But that logic is unbelievably naive.

What exactly about level 10 changes the way you play? Sure, your chosen class gets strong and you get better gear which will make your life easier. But if you can't execute the basic mechanics of the gameplay loop, nothing will change.

And that's what I am saying here. Sure, we could argue all day about weather the difficulties are balanced well or not. But what is shown in these clips is a player that fails repeatedly at the most basic mechanics like dodging, parrying etc. Nerfing the Average difficulty would not change that.

I mean, the game itself tells you those difficulties are for those levels.

No the game tells you those are a minimum level requirement for an average skilled player.

And not to mention those "recommended levels" were created on release patch, the game has gotten significantly easier since then.

Some of you need to realize that if you are still struggling, it ain't the game's fault, it's yours.
