If you want to beat everyone easily, you can just add to your character more stat points so you can hit hard and wear best armor without problems. It can be done in Notepad in a minute.

If you want to lose a lot and see those scenes, you can get a build from Patron with cheat mode. It turns off game overs and food consumption.

So there's no need for something as complex as a new difficulty with new balance if you want to make things easy for yourself 

We've made combat skippable with cheat mode activated (selectable outcomes), and currently both AI are available, but the new AI will eventually replace the old one (which is mostly just the enemies selecting their skills at random).
