My wife is watching a streamer play it on easy mode, and even that seems ridiculously hard.
The biggest issue I’ve seen outside of the difficulty level is the Japanese characters in some puzzles aren’t translated, and knowing what they mean is important to solving them.
The translations for documents and such are also pretty bad, often omitting words that are necessary for it to make sense.
That wasn’t my experience. Story mode for the puzzles is laughably easy. I don’t recall any puzzle needing Japanese characters. I also don’t recall any translation errors in any documents.
I wasn’t paying super close attention to the puzzle ones, but it happened fairly early in the game.
The document one was only obvious because the streamer reads everything out loud, and he often struggles a bit, and this time the struggle was because of missing words. It’s possible that your brain just filled in the gaps for you.
I just finished the game and I do not recall having issues with the puzzles due to any translation mishaps. If anything I would say the puzzles were relatively easy compared to sh2.

I love the game but they screwed the difficulty settings. story mode is normal difficulty despite the game constantly telling you it’s an easy mode for a story-focused experience, hard mode is hellishly difficult and tedious.
hard is basically playing dark souls but the weapons break every 10 hits. if anybody is planning on playing it, play on story even if you’re great at survival horror games

Detective Conan moment. But it’s worse here since you can’t make progress
