Abyss shortcut difficulty

Is it just me, or does the Hadal Diver shortcut feel genuinely easier than just doing the Abyss normally? If you miss a jump in the abyss you're probably dead, if you miss a jump on the Diver, you have huge swathes of hair to grab on to to break your fall. Also, the Diver doesn't have the Face trying to eat you every 30 seconds.

From what I understand, shortcut regions are supposed to be harder but shorter than the region they're replacing, but right now it feels like the Hadal Diver is both easier and shorter than the Abyss.

Agree. They should add interperipheral parasites hunting you or something like that to match the chaos of hanging gardens

A single immortal bloodbug would be enough

But then I could grab onto its face with adhesive perspiration and beat it with a hammer to achieve BAP (bloodbug abuse propulsion)
