I'm very curious about this:
LArian make Ego Draconis even better when FoV comes out, also this:
the LEVEL-based combat system would be better (enemies from level under your level can do always "damage"! )
So I hope that the beginning of ED become a little more easy and further in the game it become more difficult on that way!
I play on Low, Normal and now High and not so many difference between all three levels...
