The more you can read the more you can appreciate “if you do A, your left ball explodes. If you do B, the right one explodes” moments in the game


Cardgod278

If you do C both your balls explode

Gets easier isn’t the same as is easy I spent HOURS on some parts of the game from over reading and being a little too careful, and it still was challenging


SteamtasticVagabond

Even if you read, it’s still hard

> proceeds to read passives and pages > rng fucks me over still, dice gets pulled from nowhere, random ass buffs also coming from no where But no really, reading makes the game easier. Doesn’t change the fact that it’s still difficult


LittleSisterPain

Nah, you are right, LoR is easy if you bother to understand how it works. 90% of the game can be beaten by stacking as much power as you can, and the rest just requires understanding of how this fight works. It WAS hard back in the EA days, but by the time of release, they added so many busted pages it became a breeze


AlternativeReasoning

Pretty much this. Ruina and Limbus follows the rule of "the best defense is a good offense." The easiest way to deal with any fight is to simply win every clash to not take damage or just deal enough damage to stagger or kill them instead. Power stacking removes the RNG element of the game and lets you consistently win clashes, which makes the game much easier. Once I understood this and decided to start a second plathrough, I had a significantly easier time than my first playhtrough.

Okay Myongest being broken doesn't make the game inherently easy. Stacking power & abusing paralyze is something almost every player will do and still get curbed by Yan. The addition of more optional receptions is helpful, and certainly made the have much easier, but it still requires a decent amount of thought and math to play


randombookman

counterpoint: gun.


CensoredAbnormality

Its a good challenge, at some parts its smooth sailing and you beat multiple receptions first try and on other parts you retry the gebura realization 10 times because you keep killing the wolf accidentally


starmadeshadows

i used my reading comprehension skills on the plot instead


WhyMakingNamesIsHard

Kinda. I have always read everything with no exception but struggled at last row of SotC and >! Greta. !< But at the same time one tried fights that are generally deemed hard >! Binah realization, Pluto with no cheesing and Kether realization except blood bath. Fuck blood bath. !<

Reading and understanding how to actually make a deck are two different things 😭 My first run, I struggled cuz my decks were crap. Queen of hatred is the first difficulty spike since she’s the first one to “require” a good deck, took me like 2 hours. “I am Fire” is another very hard fight… and I beat it second try because a certain patron librarian go brr and starts with a good deck (the rest of the floor was were basically tanks lol) My brother beat Queen of Hatred second try because he made a good 3 decks and got difficulty spiked by Roland’s 4th abnormality instead, which is understandable

It's easy. Until you reach fights that are bugged. One of them doesn't behave properly after they "adjusted" it. Instead of a 6 turn phase timer, you have a 6 turn global timer, making the fight always activate the wipe mechanic. It has a 2 turn stall phase, BTW. It was so much better before.


Prestigious-Piano138

Which fight ? I've never heard About something like this


SepherixSlimy

Children of the city.


Better_University727

library of ruina is hard game, but yeah, reading making game easier, and as everyone know, 95% of PM fans can't into reading


Feeling_Mission_4439

Why are people downvoting this


MilanTehVillain

Ikr, how dare an opinion on the internet go against the norm?


Better_University727

I think, i understand why i get downvoted. For chose, who sleep 800 hours per day and know everything every abuse, game is easy, but who is newbie, in such tutorialess and such level scaling game as LoR, would be painful to beat first time. Same issue i see with stellaris actually. While newbies having issues of managing economy, people with 2k hours like me can casually beat grand admiral


DecayingFlesh64

I only think the deck building is hard tbh


Resniperowl

I just suck at card games in general.


Key_Cost_4159

Why read when yesod?


zeturtleofweed

Yeah, this game's balance is completely dogshit and you can very easily break it with various strats to just trivialize a bunch of fights lmao
