I don't think it's any harder and I'm pretty shit overall. Never could beat most of the main game without summons. You absolutely need the Shadow Realm Blessings up as high as you can get them. Some of the materials are easy to miss. Only one boss made me flip a little but that was expected, and I'm pretty far into it. NG+ character started around level 200. I just use a quality build with power stance katanas and another big weapon if needed (usually Great Stars).
