DMC 1 has a horrible hard mode
I am recently playing DMC 1 on hard mode and just got to the final Griffon boss. As I'm fighting him I realize something horrible. Playing on hard mode is straight up frustrating, tedious, and just not fun. My God is it not fun. Mainly because of all the great enemy placements from normal mode. Now feel like they've been changed with a randomiser and the place where an enemy spawns no matter how bad, is what you get. Sometimes it's fine, but putting a death scythe in mission 15 in the spinning spiked room is just stupid and horrible game design. That is also the fact that it seems like hard mode makes your gunshots miss 80% of the time, at least on certain enemies. I haven't even beaten this mode yet. I just can't have fun with it. I would rather play DMC 2 TWICE! Then ever do Hard mode again after this awful experience. Does anyone have any tips for at least beating Griffon?
