"Oh, you'd like the dice to favour you a bit more? Oh, I guess you need the easy game for babies then, baby, here you go, here's the easy baby game, where everything falls over in one hit and the enemies are dumb and have no weapons! Oh, but because you're such a baby who can't play the game well, I'll lock out a bunch of your customisation options too, wouldn't want to confuse the little baby now would we? can't have you trying to customise your character and maybe messing up! ha, ha, ha, ha! That's the game you want right?"
Are you okay? did someone say that to you once?
You can work around that because you cna change difficulty on the fly at any time, so, you can turn the difficulty up when you want to, for example, multiclass your level up (something locked out by being on the lower difficulty), and then put it back to story mode when you've done your customising... but the fact remains that you've got to *work around* this 'design choice'...
You and i BOTH know that's not a solution. This is a feedback Page not a Work around page.
The feedback is to not Slob on the NPCs so much; its frustratingly unfunny and kind of shows a piss poor understanding of the D&D game mechanics. Further this is why People started to TORRENT the game instead of Paying for it. Why pay for a game that insults its player base? not advocating im just pointing out that if you piss off the players they WILL retaliate. Look at Diablo. . . . Fallout 76 . . . . Star Citizen . . . No Mans Sky. . . . Elite Dangerous. . . . Battle Front. . . . Seriously i could go on.
