I tried to play this game on Hard and got absolutely pummeled. Between the camera and all the enemies being able to attack from offscreen, it was very hard to know when someone was actually swinging at me and I ate so much damage so quick that I barely made it past the first level after 5 tries. Kind of a shocker after I was able to breeze through Normal.
It was hard to start, for sure. It eventually rode the line of having an inverse difficulty curve, though.
Dodge more. If you're unsure if something's coming, dodge. If you can't see, dodge. I tried to hop back in about a month ago after not playing for god only knows how long and was absolutely terrible again, and I couldn't even remember how to Kilgore cancel despite my weapons still being set up for it. Back in my first playthrough I knew that harder difficulties removed the bullet time so I started off pretty early on using the item that replaced well-timed dodges with the explosion instead of slowdown, which I think helped the transition since I didn't rely on that "crutch," so to speak.
Fake edit: I see I already covered a lot of that earlier in this thread. Good times.
Did you find and buy all the hearts and magic upgrades? Did you buy the good accessories (especially the parry one?). I also like the one that disables witch time but leaves a bomb behind if you dodge at the last second. It's good to use whenever witch time isn't activating for whatever arbitrary reason that fight dictates. All that stuff really, really helps. What weapons are you using? The katana in your hands and the claws on your feet deal out ridiculous damage, that is my favorite combo right now.Quote:

The first stage was annoying because it had that dumb part where you had to perform 3 torture attacks, but they changed the angels into glories, they're unaffected by the continuous witch time, and they barely ever attack which makes it hard to up your magic. If you attack them they counter after a couple of hits and you lose way more magic than you can gain. I just stomped around doing the YBY weave attack with the katana and holding my kicks to drop some bombs on those assholes. Every time they die they drop a butterfly and you can just kill them to charge up witch time instead of trying to slowwwwwly earn it by dodging.
Aside from that Hard hasn't been bad at all. Don't forget that you can also mix and make items. I don't really like using them just because but if you're really having trouble no achievement gives a shit about your rank. You can heal, do more damage or shield up for a while. The game is SUPER friendly about helping you out. It's fucking perfect.
I'm making Bayo wear the cheerleader outfit and I gotta say: dat ass.
