"Very Hard" option, really? I think the complainers haven't even finished the game yet.
In Ego Draconis, all one needed to do is outlevel enemies, and they couldn't hurt you anymore. Now, that was easy.
In DKS, there is no longer level-based damage and even enemies way below your level can still easily kill you if you're not careful... so all those "overpowered" weapons mean absolutely nothing later in the game.
If enemies still have the same stats, only without the level adjustments to damage, then a higher difficulty will be needed because of the more powerful weapons.
Really what was needed was better armor, not weapons (Well, prehaps a little better, but not the numbers some people are finding). I never had much trouble killing enemies unless they were far above my level, it was just they kill me almost as fast.
