I love hard games, so I it never really occurred to me once to play this on anything other then nightmare. Right now, I'm adoring this game. Apart from the odd glitch here and there I'm really finding the battle system to be surprisingly deep, and I'm loving it.
I'm just asking anybody else who is playing on nightmare how they have their controls set up. I'm playing on a keyboard (I wouldn't have it any other way) and the only thing I can't figure out a good spot for is the lock on key. Unfortunately, the lock on mechanic tends to make Alice harder to control rather then easier, and while in lock on mode I'm constantly dodging in the wrong direction. (which has accounted for a large chunk of my deaths.) However, I can't throw it out completely because both ranged moves are pretty much useless in combat without being locked on.
I guess that is the weakness of a keyboard. I really wouldn't mind a zelda style (hold) z key. Right now I have it mapped to my mouse wheel (scroll up, toggle) which isn't ideal, but I can't think of anything better.
Anywho, I really love the intensity, and was also wondering if there is anybody else out there who agrees. Favorite battle so far is rad room 4 in chapter 2. 2 teapots and a menacing ruin, followed by 4 teapots and a menacing ruin.
