So we are playing the shattered star campaign and our gm seems to be ramping up the difficulty (ex. it seems like the monsters are being played as characters using everything at their disposal rather than the gm following their combat ‘moral’ like their before combat, during combat, and if gravely injured) and we have had 18 deaths so far, and we are only in the second book. We also have 2 new players who don’t know what's going on with their character or why we seem to die a lot. I asked my friend who did this campaign before but he said it wasn't this hard he also said that he did it in a group of 3 and we’re in a group of 4 so i've asked the gm why it's so different and he said "he already went through the campaign and it's no fun for him if it's the same", so another player and I in the group are thinking of quitting which would just leave the 2 new players. Our gm also keeps telling us to plan but it seems like he uses our plan against us, after our first total party wipe we decided to be more cautious that is when he started accusing us of metagaming so now when we do something successful he accuses us of metagaming or is extremely weary.
