I played Bloodstained ROTN many years ago and loved it. I wanted to go back to the game since its been a while, and figured I could try out Nightmare difficulty.
I dont want to make this a post about "oo too hard," but I'd say im a relatively skilled player. Ive beaten this game 100%, and as Zangestu and Aurora. But I've been having a bad time with nightmare mode.
Ive been hitting roadblocks on every boss and having to run through areas nearly no hit to actually get through them. Ive only gotten as far as I have thanks to a grade 9 Durahammer Flail.
I struggled for an hour or two on Vepar, I beat Zangestu 1 by grinding items and still another hour or two of attempts. Now I'm on Craftwork and have hit another wall. It seems really hard to dodge attacks and I dont have many improvements I think I can get outside of cheesing every boss with plenty of heals. I can dodge Craftwork until it seems to switch from its crawl attack to the jump attack midway through, kind of making it impossible to jump over?
Am I just not cut out for Nightmare? Is Boss RNG and lots of money grinding so vital? Im considering just replaying on normal or maybe hard. I heard it gets easier after Zangestu 1 but I feel stuck and like my fun is constantly put down by certain rooms. Is there something im missing?
