Apparently I'm a casual gamer now
Recently I picked up a preowned copy of Dragon Age Origins (I realize I'm a bit behind because the sequel came out a while back) & it is just as awesome as I was expecting. But, about 10 hours into the game I found the game even set on normal difficulty to be a pretty unforgiving experience. The difficulty & abilities of the enemies seemed to take a huge leap forward and the game began kicking my a$$ left, right & center.
So as a result, after ignoring the game for over a week out of utter frustration, I've begrudgingly turned the game down to casual. Casual is a lot easier than normal, maybe even too much so, but the game itself is good enough to make me want to play on for the experience alone.
Anyway, my question is has anyone else turned down the difficulty of a game due to utter frustration :mad2: This thread to likely to attract abuse from "hardcore gamers" too :lol:
