Yeah, I'm thinking the same.
Either that or we'll start seeing enemy time mages use their op status effects.

but yeah .. at this point in time it feels like nothing the game throws at us in part 3 will pose any significant danger
It will be like the beginning of Part 2 if you grinded some more jobs etc. at the end of Part 1
you will just roll though the new conent up to a certain point where enemies will start to scale properly
I think the level cap needs to be raised by at least 100% -- I think that the new Level Cap should be at least 150 - if not even 200
because we already cleared nearly one whole world with lv 60 - let's say when we are done with the Monster Lord Castle we will be lv 65
but then we need to fight our way through the other worlds + new extra content like the Black Tanuki etc
Let's say every World could add another 50 level at least, depending on the amount of content per world
but when I read that the Anceestors all occupie a major city and Saja + the Dark Goddess reside in the Monster Lord Castle on Hellgondo .. I feel like it could be a travel at least though the whole Sentora continent .. so with both worlds we should get at the very least another 60 level of content, maybe even more
We have to keep in mind that the way we are right now will not be the way that a completely new playthough is done
a few days ago I beat S.Chaos on normal (tbh with a suboptimal team) but it was a hard fight .. so I imagine the new content will be a bit easier than the Ilias Temple Ruins
and will steadily increase in difficulty so that by the time you reach the monster lord castle or at the very least when we go into the next Tarttarus rift, it should be a decent challenge for every team.
I'm playing a NG+ right now to find a decent diffuculty for my team that is not too hard but not too easy, just a nice, fair challenge .. right now I'm on hard but I think Very Hard - or even Hell will be my "normal" for the first content in Part 3 .. the fight against S.Chaos will show me what I will choose.
So long story short, I don't think standart enemys will be incredibly OP in any regard
And we as the player have a choice on how hard we want the fights to be with changing the difficulty setting
of course .. If you run a combo that is able to kill Super Bosses in LoC without LoC equipment .. you will probably have no fun with the game
but that is not the way, the game is meant to be played
just my 2 cents
