Just thinking about this because I'm considering giving up on BotW's Master Mode after putting ~20 hours in -- I've found that I'm avoiding pretty much all combat because it really isn't worth the risk and weapon durability, and now the game is significantly less fun. I know it'll probably get better late-game, but I can't really see myself enjoying the grind enough to make that worth it, especially after putting in like almost 200 hours into the standard mode.
So this got me thinking, When did I really feel adequately challenged (and rewarded) from a "difficulty" standpoint? and I suppose for me I really liked the original Halo trilogy's Legendary modes. It was difficult enough that I really was forced to think about every combat scenario on every level -- but IMO, the resulting story beats and "badass" moments engaged me enough to make it worth the hassle. One thing though -- screw those sniper jackals -- they were the cheapest little bastards on Legendary. --- "Come out to the coast, we'll get together, have a few laughs..." http://www.last.fm/user/kmal415 ...

WWE SmackDown! Here Comes the Pain. It's one of those games where even on the easy difficulty, the AI will destroy you if you let it.

Fire Emblem 6 and 7 got quite an enjoyable Hard Mode. Sacred Stones is also there, but it isn't that much different from normal.
Megaman X5, X6 and X8 got some cool Hard Modes too, X6 in particular (even if the Maverick Stages are kind of off putting). --- What sounds better, cool or nice? http://i2.kym-cdn.com/photos/images/original/001/128/388/18b.jpg http://i.imgur.com/tUJUZ.jpg ... Copied to Clipboard!

Mass effect 2+3. I always liked the way it primarily changed enemy defense and behavior rather than just massively upping damage and hp, made playing on max difficulty a more interesting experience That sounds like a great way to do it. Making enemies on hard damage sponges is poor design. Forcing you to play smarter is the way to go. Like the newer Xcom games. If you play on the hardest setting, you better make sure you are getting under full cover every turn, and never give the aliens a chance to flank you. --- The ball is round, the game lasts 90 minutes.
