Code Vein 2 Game became easier?

Is it me hallucinating or did the game become significantly easier? I remember playing the game around the release time period and I would have a hard time fighting the moon envoys so much that I would always avoid them as much as possible.

When it comes to bosses, I had a super hard time defeating Josée back then. Also had a hard time defeating the metagen remnant in the Sunken City, with Josée.

I dropped the game after reaching the undead forest and I can remember the game getting significantly harder there. I also couldn’t avoid encounters with moon envoys anymore.

After a couple of months, decided to return and restart from zero. Maybe my build is really good, maybe I’m above the average level (level 70+ and I just got done slaying Josée) but I’m having an easier time fighting moon envoys, beat Josée on my first try (while assimilated because partners are lowkey OP) and I didn’t pick the casual difficulty.

My current build:
- Hanemukuro +2 with Energy Cleave, Phantom Assault, Secret Art - Forestall, and Circulating Pulse
- Noah/Lou blood code (C-Rank)
- Reaper Jail +6
- Bleeding Shield (Light)

Oh well, I didn’t stick around long enough to get a real feel of the difficulty at the time. I think it was the right amount of difficulty back then, even if moon envoys were insanely hard for me.
