Gungeon has to be my most favorite roguelite in the genre. It has the polish and the aesthetic. I remember playing it nonestop back when I got it free from Epic Games. However, with everything done in the game, I just... don't have the motivation, there's nothing to left to explore.

So years later, I've decided to install some content mods. I actually like some character ones, like the Skater mod, they've got a lot of polish. And I see more items were added, some are useless some are very good, basically everything as usual. However what I was most hyped about are the new floors and enemies. And this is where my issue lies, I feel like they're overly hard. Of course it could just be me being rusty, but I don't have anywhere the same issues fighting the OG bosses or rooms, it's only the modded ones.

Planetside especially so brutal I had to disable it outright. I could've not been it, but I've been getting some like insane rooms. I am talking 3 Gun Nuts and 1 Chain Gunner in a room with no cover. Ever since disabling it, the difficulty seemed to have stabilized. However other mods still do not relent. I've went into the tree trunk secret Jungle chamber, and there I am getting enemies all the way from 3rd to 4th chambers. I know secret chambers are suppose to be hard, but this feels like overkill. In one room there were 2 Shambling Rounds and several Skullets, what am I suppose to do with just my barely functional early game build? Oubliette is certainly not this hard.

Maybe I am simply not getting something, especially about Planetside. But those content mods feel way too brutal to have fun in. Am I the only one who feels this way?

Is it just me, or are Enter the Gungeon content expansion mods way too hard?
