#HYPER LIGHT DRIFTER MAP AT START HOW TO#

it's more of knowing how to handle situations and being prepared than anything else, though, I think. and you are exactly right! i feel like i am 'good' at retro action games and I will admit I died a lot my first playthrough. Not that those games are bad, just that I think the wrong type of gamer picks up a game like this (or Cuphead for example) and then when they keep losing (you are supposed to) and don't have story setpieces and quick time events and paid DLC to get better weapons and items and shit they decide the game is just unfair and everybody else is just trying to be hardcore or something. other games have their strengths and purpose, and if you don't like action games or think they're too hard there are plenty of 'immersive' or story driven games out there that won't ask any skill or effort from you. it's really what action games really should be about. These people really don't get the reward of putting in practice and mastering a game and then feeling like a badass. I've seen people say you should be able to beat a level of a game first try with clear indicators and no surprises or the game is 'unfair.' I think problems with difficulty in any (well, I guess most) game is mainly due to people who think they shouldn't lose or die very often. If you are making use of the extra hit point even 50% of the time (a low estimate) then over the course of an entire playthrough that can jump to a very high number of extra hits when compared to normal difficulty.Įdit: and if im not mistaken easy has more health box locations also Now, that doesn’t sound like it makes that much difference especially because bosses and strong enemies deal 2 damage, but there are almost always 1 damage enemies mixed in with the 2 damage enemies, making it usable in many fights. It allows you to take 1 extra hit per health box from an enemy that deals 1 damage. Most people should be able to beat it, but if you seriously hate the difficulty for whatever reason then okay, you gave it a chance easy might be a better experience for that person.īut the one extra hp actually makes most of the game a lot easier. I don’t think that its necessarily bad that its an option, I just think that everyone should try the normal difficulty first.
