Adjust the Difficulty for Shin Megami Tensei III: Nocturne HD Remaster

Adjust the Difficulty

Shin Megami Tensei III Nocturne HD Remastered features three difficulty settings, these are Merciful, Normal, and Hard. If you are new to the game or just want to play casually it is recommended that you play on the Merciful difficulty setting which will allow you to experience the story without having to endlessly grind Macca and experience points.

When you play the Merciful difficulty setting the enemies are weaker and the encounter rates lower. You will also take less damage, deal more damage and earn experience points and Macca at a faster rate enabling you to level up and purchase key items quicker. In order to access the Merciful difficulty setting you must download the Merciful DLC Pack which is free. You will be able to change the difficulty of the game during gameplay by going to the main menu or from the command menu. Simply select 'Config', navigate to the 'Game' tab, and look for the 'Difficulty' option.
