You need to play more RPG's. The early Dragon Quest and Final Fantasy games especially. Now THAT is hard. At least in DS there's a way around each obstacle (enemy) - physical or tactical. But in those, it's hours of grind or death. Limited magic, limited cash, parties too big or too small... I suggest you start with FFIV DS. |
If FF IV DS is like the original FF IV it's a piece of cake. I played it with an emulator, using the turbo option for the keys. I basically just hold attack in 95+% of the battles, watching the health and healing when needed. The only FF games for Playstation (meaning 1 to XIII because the old ones have all been ported) I didn't complete are FF1 & 2. Not because they were hard, because I've found them boring.
I don't know about Dragon Quest, but with "in the market" I meant right now. In the PS3 the hardest I played after DS has been Resonance of Fate. DS is not hard just because it is easy to die, it is hard also because we pay for any mistake. One must always be careful. Not even in the Nexus one is safe. Throwing down the controller to answer a phone call or anything may mean to spoil the entire game. If L2/R2 get triggered they may hit a valuabe NPC that will be angry forever without giving his or her services anymore, autosaving on it. It happened to me with stockpile Thomas. All my inventory gone. I don't believe any other game has been so sadist. Not that I know about at least but for sure not in the previous generations, since autosave (with locked gamesaves) wasn't present. Demon's Souls simply doesn't forgive.
