True, once you reach over-world difficulty 100, there are much more enemies in every encounter and location. They are also better equipped and there tend to be harder variants of them (like with goblins at difficulty 100 you get often several fat ones too in your typical encounter on common map).
I did the newest goblin camp that was added in this version and there were like 30 or so enemies. With 7 or 8 of them being fat ones alone. That includes additional enemies that show once the alarm goes off. Reward was nice but nothing that I do not already have.
With melee, and being in Sybaris in particular, you do not even need to eat that much to replenish your hunger. I can easily with one trip through city ruins map replenish several dozen hunger points by killings worms that you get by destroying those red flesh things.
