THE ASCENT
The Ascent’s difficulty has clear balancing issues (which was doubly true at launch), especially if you’re playing the game solo, even on the easiest difficulty. If you have a full party of four that’s going through the game though, we’d seriously suggest going straight up to the Hard difficulty setting. Tense, bombastic combat affairs become even more so, and every firefight feels like a thrilling, adrenaline-fueled, chaotic romp.
