I started on Hard, and it stayed there till I finished the game.
And no souls game gave me the kinda grief this game gave me. It didn't help that I was well int the game before I fully understood the depth of the upgrade system. But when mastered all that did was just change the game from a one hit kill on every tough enemy to a two or if you are lucky 3 hit kill game.
Those blasted valkyries though, and those trials and that gas maze place....... still have nightmares of all that.
