Crimson Desert’s original, demanding combat defined its identity, but backlash over reduced challenge led Pearl Abyss to dial back the friction. The studio now introduces a dedicated difficulty setting to restore that edge while giving players a choice, balancing the game’s tough design with broader accessibility.
Larian Studios warns players that the Tactician difficulty setting in Baldur's Gate 3 will be extremely challenging, testing players' knowledge of the game's rules. This mode increases enemy health, improves enemy AI, and adds additional obstacles and surprises to combat encounters. Players will need to strategize and make thoughtful decisions to survive, as enemies will target vulnerable characters and disrupt concentration spells. The developers advise players to start with the default difficulty setting before attempting Tactician, as it requires a deep understanding of the game mechanics.
