I think you either didnt read or didnt understand what im saying Ellary.

I am in fact saying that the normal mode as it is is alright. Baring some minor changes and adjustments. And that the devs can save themselves some time and resources by not doing the Hard difficult now - at all, but instead release it after a few months after the game comes out.

And that would have its own benefits too.

It would give them more time to concentrate to the core of the game experience for the majority of players - its normal mode. And it could result in a better hard difficulty later on.
To mention just the few main probable benefits.

An unorthodox approach to be sure but... wouldn't that be in line with the overall style and core design features of the game and Larian studios in general?
