Why the fuck isn't that standard difficulty then?
Dominic Collins
that's better than bullet sponge mode

Add all that to botw weapon system and you have the worst case of wasted potential, they didndt even change the shrines around or add any puzzles.

That seems to be the Zelda series' favourite way of doing things.
It's basically "get competent" mode, removing the safety netting that affords more mistakes.

I don't fucking understand why devs don't implement hard modes properly. Like fuck man, DMC mastered this by changing when enemies were encountered and introducing new scenarios as well as improving their tactics. I've been playing a couple of the Halo's on legendary and it's just turned into the worst cover shooter fucking ever man. I feel like I have to play with others to make it bearable.

In halo's defense, it does change some enemies, at least in 1 and 2. I don't know about other's though.
Jeremiah White
The worst, and unfortunately, most common.
I'd prefer the default to be the enemies just do double damage or have a devil trigger.
