    I had this problem with Cyberpunk and eventually just stopped playing. Every time I’d get a cool new weapon and want to go beat up on some street fighting scrubs only to get my ass kicked.

    I prefer difficulty scaling where it’s somewhat linked to areas. Kind of like Diablo 2. So if I’m leveled up and beat Act V I can go back and tear through Andariel runs if I want, but Act V still has some challenging areas. I don’t think the entire world needs to scale as you progress.

    but on the other hand if you get more powerful and the world around you doesn’t the game gets progressively easier and is the hardest at the start, which is a huge hurdle and after that boring

      Or alternatively you don’t increase you demagw, instead leveling up in non-combat skills, which in turn scales up your enemies which in turn makes combat harder. (Oblivion, Skyrim)
