I need to play on harder difficulties. Otherwise the game gets to boring and will not present a challenge. Seriously I see people play Mass Effect 2 on normal and then say some stuff is hard. That makes me want to DIE with laughter.


ME2 on normal is like a completely different game =) So many things that you can get away with on normal are completely ineffective on Insane. That's what I love about harder difficulties, it forces you to be as efficient as you can just to have a chance. For me, it's the only way I can learn a game quickly. It's kind of limiting yes, but limits are what help you get better at just about anything.

Seriously though, games on different difficulties can almost be different games. Things like item combos or certain strategies or techniques can be rendered null and void on higher difficulties. Also, I don't really have fun unless it's at least moderately challenging (for single player that is). Easy can be fun to mess around with, or getting easy achievements/trophies (which I don't even care about anymore), but that's it.

I hate unlocking difficulties, just give me the hardest setting from the get-go; It'll be fine, I promise.
