This is from playing the game normally as any new player would, meaning doing quests from traders, looting and purchasing from traders which is literally outlined as to how to play and guided by the starter quest and from any new player playing any RPG or any other game.
Your perspective is NOT that of a new player. This is what so many people fail to understand when they talk about balance. If you have been playing this game for 10 years, you have been mentally min maxing on auto pilot for just about as long. No new player will play like this. You are a veteran and know all the tricks to level quickly and obtain loot.
Your "personal" experience is not the "typical" experience. In order to fully understand balance, you would need to approach this with virgin eyes, which is impossible in your current state.
Turn on max difficulty, feral sense, and always have them on sprint with max bloodmoon and get back to me this is too easy.
