#1 Pragmata
4.1

Difficulty is viewed as challenging but fair, with multitasking pressure and tough fights that usually feel rewarding rather than punishing.

Pros: combat system, emotional impact

Cons: map and navigation design, platforming precision

#2 Onimusha: Way of the Sword
4.0

Difficulty is demanding but generally regarded as rewarding, with Story mode offering a gentler route and Action mode asking for precise play. Opinions split where normal enemies feel too easy...

Pros: combat system, fun factor

Cons: pacing, open-world design

#3 Resident Evil Requiem
3.5

Difficulty balance was mixed: some praised flexible challenge, while others felt the game had too much firepower or lacked a hardcore mode.

Pros: pacing, combat system

Cons: originality

#4 Monster Hunter Stories 3: Twisted Reflection
3.1

Challenge is one of the most divisive traits. Many enjoy how demanding battles reward preparation and learning, while others hit sharp spikes, one-shots, or late-game walls that force extra leveling.

Pros: combat system, narrative quality

Cons: difficulty balance, grind level

#5 Monster Hunter Wilds
2.8

Difficulty balance was the most divisive area: newcomers found it approachable, but many veterans felt Wilds was too easy and lacked real challenge.

Pros: combat system, narrative quality

Cons: difficulty balance, endgame content

#6 Street Fighter 6
2.6

Difficulty balance was mixed, with some reviewers finding World Tour too easy and others hitting frustrating late-game spikes.

Pros: accessibility options, combat system

Cons: narrative quality, frame rate stability

#7 Mega Man X: Command Mission
2.3

The campaign often starts too easily, but later bosses can abruptly become punishing. Experienced players sometimes find it manageable throughout, while newcomers report one-hit deaths and frustrating healing shortages.

Pros: combat system, overall quality

Cons: fun factor, narrative quality
