Well, actually I played as is until the Mountain area which is kinda close to endgame. And than I started to feel tired somehow. You see the low lvl enemies already not a problem itself. But I realized that it just waste of time when you shrug off dozens of suddenly appeared out of nowhere mobs in the area where you already killed all wildlife few times. It's either distraction or time waste or just me that I found their existence annoying.

So here I thought that maybe making them more rare and for some of them more easy to kill (Trolls and sea snakes in specific) can remove some extensive frustration.
