From what I've played so far the game seems like it spoon feeds you a bit. I wouldn't say it is a "hard" game at all so far and I'm about 50% through it.
When you die it gives you hints on how to succeed next time, when in x-ray mode or whatever it highlights all items/places of interest etc and the mobs aren't that tough. I'm playing the PC version on Normal at the moment.
The game is extremely well made, but I haven't felt much accomplishment moving from level to level or beating bosses.
