Okay. And how am I supposed to find these play styles? Looking up walkthroughs that show you OP builds and where to find relevant items is surely more immersion breaking than changing a difficulty setting in a menu that makes enemies do 20% less damage and have 20% less health.

Farm normal enemies slowly, ignore bosses until you are over leveled - say by 20%, spend the time slowly exploring and methodically clearing out enemies instead, mount and run away or through packs of enemies, use summons and the NPC or human summons, play as a mage, try boss fights mounted where you are allowed.
Isn't grinding just way worse? The same effect but at the expense of hours of boring gameplay?
I'm already using summons regularly in these games. Invasions sure are a "fun" trade for being able to use human summons.
