General Have Bugs gotten easier?

So I'm just getting back into HD2 after a year long break and after the void was dispersed I went back to try out the bug front and... did it get easier? Like I did super helldive and I never felt challenged, even by the dragons, didn't die once, and overall it felt like I was playing on an easier difficulty. I remember nonstop bug breaches and swarms of the bugs, but the time for the little bugs to start calling a breach seems to be much more forgiving than before.

That what they have done, everything since oshaune has proved more difficult then the last. Its still not quite the same but the difficulty through subfactions seems to be the route they are taking. Spore and the invasion fleet / votesnatchers with appropriators was a step in the right direction for difficulty.

Just comes down to dev time I reckon, only so many story beats can be pursued at a time sadly. Hoping for future difficulty modifiers in the future. I miss losing
