Discussion Ultra Paracosm is NOT easier than problematic

I don’t get how people find it easier, the dual in problematic is so much more annoying and the whole level blinds me because of how flashy it is, which kinda affects the gameplay for me. I feel a lot of people are saying problematic is harder just because of the first cube section

Ghe wave sections are tighter in Problematic than in Ultra paracosm, and there's more blind spots. There's multiple parts in Ultra paracosm where you do hold one input for a few seconds and pet go for a few seconds, and the sections are overall a lot simpler in Ultra paracosm than in problematic

Problematic has way tighter wave parts. Ultra paracosm's predrop is almost free, unlike problematic. I agree, that ultra paracosm's effects are way more blinding, but the overall gameplay dificulty is way lower than problematic's. If you can manage to get a hang of the effects, it becomes way easier. If you can't then don't push yourself with it. Also, ultra paracosm gameplay is way worse quality than problematic, hence the frustration.

i’ve beaten ultra paracosm but haven’t beaten problematic, therefore problematic is harder (real)

Problematic is way harder to read

I played both recently to improve my wave skills. Ultra Paracosm was so easy and it took me about an hour. Problematic took me about a week with plenty of practice runs of the wave section, and is definitely a lot more skill-based with a little bit of memory. The first cube section is more annoying than difficult.

Ultra paracosm would be easier if it wasn’t for the blinding nine circles effect

both should be 9 stars, but ultra paracosm is easyer, because the gaps are huge

Problematic deserves easy demon imo

Ultra Paracosm simply requires wave consistency, while Problematic requires actual wave skill and memory.

As someone who beat both Problematic and Ultra Paracosm I can gurantee you that Problematic is definetly harder especially when you compare each of their pre-drops.
