I don't know about the 360 version (which is supposed to be fairly broken in general by comparison), but on the PC it felt fairly balanced and even got to be kind of too easy after I was about halfway through and had everyone set up in proper unions and learning useful abilities, and no group was without good healers/revivers. New Game+/hard mode is another story entirely, though, especially trying to stay low BR until you get all the good characters. It's fun, but some bosses are just ridiculous.IamShmgeggy said:The Last Remnant. If you fail to notice a flanking maneuver coming up, and you get Raid locked. Set the controller down and walk away. Its got a solid story, but screw the random difficulty spikes.
One game that I gave up on that's stuck with me for a long time is Diddy Kong Racing. It seems like a perfectly innocent Mario Kart clone for quite a while, and then it suddenly gets massively harder toward the end. Thanks to the Internet, I have since discovered that it's common knowledge that there are plenty of ways to get a lot more mileage out of speed boosts, which makes the game actually possible to beat, but the messages that tell you how in-game are displayed randomly, and it's very easy to miss them or never see the relevant ones at all and just think you somehow have to magically cut 20+ seconds off your time through sheer willpower.
