Game was easymode before and had no challenge. The strong weapons were OP and there was zero need for any additional support other than 3 food items. Now potions and other items are needed and combat presents a challenge beyond spamming LMB and using a round shield since the other two styles were obsolete. The bow was easily the best weapon and there was no point using anything else, any effective boss strategy just involved not actually fighting the boss but kiting it around terrain traps and just pinging it with the bow. The DPS was insane. Combat mechanics were so easy to exploit and stamina was never a problem. It got to a point before each boss where I could just stand there and tank any enemy of my tier without worry. This update has rounded out the game way more. Are people forgetting just how easy it was and how much of a demigod your character felt like? There was no challenge, all the casuals are just up in arms because they actually have to try now. Maybe they can add different difficulty for them in the future.
