>hardest mode makes all enemies respawn seconds after dying

I'm glad this didn't catch on

Any TES game

>>387767927
Honestly, I rather them just being stronger instead of being the same fucking fight but with more HP bars.

>>387767138
Binding of Isaac

>>387769276
Pretty much.

>>387766728
ive kinda stopped playing games on the hardest difficulty. normal or easy is my norm now.

>>387769276
Either that or you have to make a build where you're just kiting everything, which isn't much better.

>enemies arbitrarily get more HP the further into the game you are

>bosses have damage gates to prevent you from doing too much damage too quickly anyway

There should be a general on /vg/ for these threads

Is there a game with a worse naming scheme for difficulties than Killing Floor 2?

PAYDAY 2

>>387769856
Felt this one for sure moving from KF1 to KF2

Payday 2 had this as well where it's:

>EASY
>braindead easy
>NORMAL
>enlightened vegetable easy
>HARD
>easy unless you're a kid
>VERY HARD
>regular old normal difficulty level maybe you'll die if you run straight into the cops
>OVERKILL
>comfy at least a little challenging difficulty for general play
>DEATHWISH
>bullshit hard as fuck supercops, near instant death difficulty and removed level mechanics difficulty

The difficulty spike from Overkill to Deathwish is insane compared to the differences between the usual difficulties

I didn't play PD2 a whole heap. Was it set up like this due to any kind of player progression?

>>387771460
I think at some point that might have been the idea, where you'd level yourself on the easier difficulties and work your way up as you put points into character skills, but if you're not bad at FPS you could probably jump right in at Hard/Very Hard and work up from there and sooner since you get more XP to spend.
It felt like they put more focus on the hardest difficulties and ignored the gradient leading up to them with the easier ones.
