(+) Yeah! (+)

Ive been playing it and its fun. RoR2 was my first game in the series. @badjay told me the original was obscenely hard and he doesnt get why people liked it. The game does like to spam enemies at you more than in RoR2 (which i feel ramps up slower than this game and feels too easy at the start) and I guess kiting is a lot harder because you dont have the z axis to kite with.

But would you say they made the remake easier than the original?

(Im also hoping my main from RoR2, Artificer, is fun as I havent unlocked her yet)

There are more options, especially for unlocking things, and I feel that makes it fundamentally easier. The game itself doesn't hesitate to throw bullshit at you from time to time though.

Itemization is more random than RoR 2 though which makes the game fundamentally harder. There are no item recycling stations for instance.

Oh yeah, especially character alternate abilities in Prismatic Trials. Considerably easier than in RoR2 where getting some skills could be an absolute nightmare (or you had to set up a run specifically for getting achievements).

Red items are so much more common than they are in 2, Ive noticed
