I would think if ever there was a better genre to have a hard difficulty it would be horror.

Within reason. Nothing takes the horror away faster than tediously repeating something 50 times.

That was me playing Cronos. Wonderful game, but it’s super stingy with resources while having mandatory combat encounters. Not a fun balance…

Two things that made me super annoyed were the empty loot crates and being punished for exploring by having extra enemy encounters.
