    The levels / balance in Pillars can be a bit weird. If you do all the side content, or you’re doing the DLC, when it’s available, you’re going to be overleveled. However, the game asks you once or twice, if you want to raise the enemies to your level, so they’re still challenging. I didn’t do that (I didn’t help all those old ladies over the street, just so that some random bad guy gets some free exp), which meant a lot of the story fights were pretty easy by the end. There are still some fights designed for (near) max level though, which were really hard.

      Thanks for the tip! I actually heard from some friends that the combat was pretty tough in this game, and so far it’s manageable, but I will absolutely take a level advantage that I’ve earned if the game gives me that prompt, lol.
