>>420851 The game is easy. Easy games are a bit annoying, because I prefer to play games that require a few deaths to beat. This game also doesn't scale difficulty well/at all.
On hard, a hydra head takes three times as long to kill than on normal. Three times as much whittling with easily repeatable button presses, without any new tactics or skill required - it's simply the exact same, albeit with more repeats of the same sequence.
Games that scale difficulty well include ninja gaiden and Crysis. Crysis changes the gameplay dramatically with the loss of crosshairs, enemies speaking different languages, reduced health, fewer visual aids to the player - playing crysis on Delta is a different experience than playing it on normal.
Ninja gaiden on normal is a game of counters and combos. Ninja gaiden on hard is a different game, with new enemies, all with different traits. There are basic fiends who slide at great speed, triceratops-esque demons with clubs, and all the police are now robots. It really is different.
God of war is designed for play on one difficulty. Playing on others doens't require more skill, it requires more time.
