Some stray observations about inFamous, this game is HARD like ungodly so at points. For the first quarter of the game I was playing it on hard no problem but then out of nowhere the game went from challenging to full blown frustration. I downshifted from medium to easy in a matter of missions.

I can't really place what it is that makes this game so frustrating, other than the fact that Cole is weak as fuck despite facing very similar odds that inFamous 2 Cole faced despite being a hundred times stronger in the sequel.

I didn't mind the challenge at first, but now I'm at a point where I'm batting off four Conduit Reapers, while standard Reapers shoot me from cover (Cole needs to dish out about ten times as much damage to take down a single foot soldier from distance, than he can take himself, and so when you're fighting off multiple enemies you can't even see, where you die in about three hits. INFURIATING) and those fucking exploding Reapers draw my attention and fire, it's just more than I can handle and it's fucking infuriating at points. ON EASY.

I miss Cole's ability to unleash one devastating super move to clear the way, that took the pressure off a lot in tight battles. The game really has become a slog.
