Some people consider games easy AFTER they've died constantly, as they were learning the game.
It's another common human response
(awaiting the claim that Twotricks died maybe 1-2 times during his first playthrough)
No. I died lots of times. There were some fights that i had to retry for up to 40 minutes.But. All in all I expected hard to be : "Oh my god this is insane" - like Super Meat Boy style
Now the next difficulty is "Insane" That is actually Hard, but you can die only once.
I am not much on prema death games. I usually play really tired from work , and I often fall asleep at keyboard, and than i die. So its not good for me
So…we're in a agreement then, the game does a poor job of explaining the combat to you,
The only thing they should change is the Kayran fight. The mechanics of that are beyond irritating when you go into the fight blind. There's so many different parts to the fight you have to learn without any hints beforehand… one screwup and you have to repeat everything over, only to get to the next "trick".
It's easy if you follow some internet walkthrough of the mechanics, but I'd like to think that's not a requisite to enjoy a battle, rather than curse at it for a couple hours.
The rest of the game is balanced fairly well; I look forward to meeting Letho againknowing what I know now about combat after beating the game the first time.(in Chapter 1)
Respawning monsters are a bit annoying. For example you try to kill the endrega queen and if you fail smaller minions respawn after a reload. A few ain't that bad but 4-5 is a bit bothersome. I guess it's punishment for sucking and not killing the queen on the first try.
It probably shouldn't have been my first monster hunting quest in Flotsam, while playing on hard. Haven't even spent any points on the actual main skill paths yet.
The Endrega Queen made really easy:
Just use Aard and Quen. After Aard, use 1 quick attack and 1-2 slow attacks depending on timing. Then roll away as per usual, to avoid retaliation. I died minimally after learning this, even on hard. It really pays to read up on monsters in the Attributes screen - as I picked up the Aard trick that way.
There is a way to dispose of one of the queens with a bit of external help and without engaging in fight. Actually, it was even funny. I combined two quests in one.That works on first queen easily. Because you have a lot maneuvering space.
Second one is more tricky.
No place to jump around. And if you run back too much it returns to its spawn point and regenerates (at least it was so for me)

What is the trick in Kayran's fight?
