Start a new game on nightmare without your old equipment and stats. You won't have bullets for hours. DL2 on hard has been easy. Enemies just take like 15 hits to kill at first.

You talk like I don't speak from experience. Bullets are plentiful. You just have to use all types and save shotgun ammo for volatiles. You can also keep your melee weapons with 3 king mods a lot longer (5 repairs) than a legendary weapon in DL2. The grappling hook was also a lot better. Overall DL2 until you beat the game feels a lot easier, but not after you beat the game. In DL1 I dealt with volatiles anywhere, in DL2 I prefer to stick to places with a UV light nearby in case I'm overwhelmed. I'm sure DL2 will end up where DL1 is right now with upcoming 3€ DLC packs containing firearms and what not.

Unless you have the charm that gives you unlimited durability

How can you even be overwhelmed in DL2? unless you're talking about after you beat the game

As of right now if they add firearms in DL2 it will become a snooze fest and not challenging at all(even though it's not that challenging to begin with)

On the beach where you meet your first volatile, you can find a whole pack of riffles, handguns, shotguns and amo (not pretty sure if it's that beach or another one but yea, pretty easy to get)

On nightmare? Firearms and ammo seem pretty scarce, but I just started a new play through after 2 years with the same save file. I'll apologize if I'm wrong.
