I finish the extermination request. Two tries. this game's hard mode is no walk in the park, but its considerably easier than that insanity that was SC's hard mode.

So, the reason for this btw, is that the original PC versions of Sky only one one difficulty, normal. When they got ported to PSP, they added hard and nightmare difficulty modes. The games weren't balanced around the higher difficulties. 3rd was the first one in the series that was designed with hard and nightmare in mind.

As such, FC and SC (especially SC) are ludicrously hard on non-normal difficulties, while every other game in the series feels much better. If anything, I'd recommend at least hard if not nightmare for every game past Sky as the normal modes tend to be too easy.
