While most of us were enjoying the extreme difficulty when Misty was first released, a few annoying greydwarves were complaining about all the great work you guys put in to actually improving the game and accurately increasing difficulty. I loved how hard it was in the start, sure it really sucked how much I died and lost skills, but it felt like a new challenge to what had become a very easy game after hours of post plains game play. Yes, I am still enjoying the new biome, but it really sucks when complainers ruin it for the rest of us.

I didn't play it right after it released, because I didn't notice, but how was the difficulty reduced? What changed? I only logged in like a week ago..
