LOL i made a topic about this aswell..

it seems this game has been altered alot with the difficulty.. even though im enjoying everything else the difficulty seems way different.. i thought maybe it was the additional DLC helping me out because its pretty awesome items :) but yea...

ill keep this in mind in the future << if i ever want a good challenge ill reinstall game @ vanillia pre 1.2 and hang on for my life :P lol
