Wouldn't say that, part of the gameplay. Loved LBA1 & LBA2 for the FEELING (which only the French can do, obviously lol).

The only thing I've disliked so far isn't the difficulty (finished both twice so far), but LBA2's 3D view outdoors, as it tended to be laggy on a notebook, taking extra graphical stuff as raining out & constantly pressing Enter as the angles sucked at times.
