I'm sorry I must be a pussy but I didn't enjoy the difficulty at all. I dialed back to normal after the 3rd chapter or so. The problem is not that wouldn't be able to beat it, but I just had to play too careful, which is not really how I enjoy this game best. On normal I'm liking it much more so far. Maybe I'll do a 2nd playthrough on extreme, but for the 1st one it would have ruined the experience a little bit. (It's of course my personal taste tho) |
No you're not a puss, there's no point in ruining your gaming experience if the stealthy, more careful gameplay is not the style you like to play. There are some games where I prefer to be able to go in guns blazing and others where I like being able to go more stealthlyl. I generally like action more than stealth. Wolfenstein on the hardest difficult definitely required a stealthier approach at times and being forced to hide & get around some enemies to target their weak spot. One reason I may have had an easier time is I grinded out a lot of perks very early on by restarting checkpoints.
For me some of my most enjoyable experiences in games come from conquering the most challenging sections in a game and it forces me to use more strategy so I usually like to start on the highest difficulty when given the choice. There are a few games like Spec Ops & COD: WAW though where the hardest difficulty just felt cheap and took away from the fun. Did you ever try either of those games on veteran?
I think I still compare a lot of games highest level difficulty to COD: World at War on veteran. That game was beyond frustrating and gave me a ton of stress by spending hours and hours on a single checkpoint only to get near the end of a checkpoint (with infinitely spawning enemies), pop your head out of cover and either get instantly killed or have grenades spawn at your feet. I nearly broke my controller playing that game! lol. When I think back to World at War I'd say Wolfenstein was a breeze compared to that.
