Tales of Graces f Remastered Difficulty Differences, Explained

Tales of Graces f Remastered is finally here, allowing players to visit or revisit this exceptional action JRPG. There are so many different quality-of-life features in this entry, like difficulty options. If the various difficulty options and Grade Shop features in Tales of Graces f Remastered confuse you, you are in the right place.

What Are the Tales of Graces f Remastered Difficulty Differences?

There are four different difficulty options available to players with this remaster: Easy, Normal, Moderate, and Hard. Easy is the smoothest difficulty option that doesn’t take much from the player at all to win. This is the one to pick if you just want to breeze through the story and enjoy everything that happens with ease.

Normal is the option that you could consider the default pick. It is there for players who are trying this game for the first time and it has great balancing overall. Moderate is an odd name choice for what is effectively a slightly more challenging Normal. The trade-off is you get slightly better item drops. Finally, Hard is for the true veterans and skilled players. You get better bonuses with this one.
