Yeah, the difficulty spikes are tremendous, but I tend to think of them more as puzzles than actual difficulty spikes. Most of the time, it's not that the enemy is unbeatable, but that the enemy requires a specific strategy that is unlikely to be employed commonly.I bought a bundle just for this game some time ago. Heard a lot of good words about the story but apparently it's a pretty rough game with huge difficulty spikes. If I remember correctly some people were working on a mod to fix it but I can't find it anywhere
