Yo is C7 hard? All along I haven't really gotten into playing it for many reasons. (I'm worried if I have enough resources cus I only had 2 delivery drones as a Seidr + I might make a decision I will very much regret on C8)
Also, how many hours did u spend playing it? I assume there's not rep to max anymore (like with the Sawmill, etc., or with the Huldra) so it's not gonna be time consuming anymore, right?
if you only have 2 delivery drones, you're basically already missing a lot of cgs from chapter 6, you need at least 3 to get the last cgs from everyone, and I'll say the more delivery drones you have the easier chapter 7 since the resources are hard to come by, I don't know how hard it'll be since I always have all 9 delivery drones.
Chapter 7 is a puzzle forest, so it's hard for the first playthrough, but after you figure out everything, it's fairly a breeze like chapter 6, but even then, without a guide, you'd probably miss a few details. Other than that, there is no challenge outside of the puzzle and leveling, so yes, in a sense, it's easier.
