Returning player from a couple of years ago (ver 2.0) and tbh the game difficulty on "normal" and easy difficulties seems way too hard right now. Feels like you have to play near perfectly with items and correct commands to get anywhere and it's so easy to fail. I would guess that should be true for hardcore mode, but personally i would like a difficulty where properly just punishing and rewarding a slave would get you somewhere. (While also keeping the house clean and some food on the table (c+)).
Currently i'm just not getting anywhere tbh.
Also is the combat supposed to be impossible?
I created a custom character on easymode, with patrician armor equipped, also set my stats to max (all stats to green) and went to try and "patrol the Border of Frogs". Met an Ogre - who had double my stats ... Ok, used my greataxe to hit him .. for 2 damage. Took 42 ... Like ok.. game.. Died in 3 hits.
Tried again, met a werewolf - stats are similar to mine, again i do like 10 damage, werewolf just does more, i die again.
This is on "easy" mode, with maxed out stats. Yes i do not have the specialized attacks that i guess you could learn (if i remember correctly). But having maxed combat stat should account for some of the difference in my opinion.
Currently seems that game is balanced around very experienced players and the difficulty is just way way too high to be able to just normally play without going for a word for word tutorial.
