Either you're all trolling.. lying or playing with maxed out chars.
Playing from Lv 1 on Insanity.. is not easy. That Rescuing Moshai v 3 Fiends.. that have more hitspoints than you can take down.. easy? Yeh right, cloud cookoo land if you reckon so. Only if you manage to get them jammed between the stairs to the top ledge.. and don't fire at them at all yourself, just let your 2 ai's fight them.
The main gameplay is fairly easy, stay in cover etc, pop out.. don't get flanked and so on. It's great fun then. Even the Preators or whatever the shielded bosses are, not so bad.
But some of the setpiece missions are insane. At the correct level. Once you're lv 50+ everythings easy. Running around with uber weapons etc.

Playing a maxed out character is 52 level scaling difference. It is arguably harder than doing it with a level 1 fresh character lol. I guess most people haven't reached max level yet to know this - but anything over 80 is a punishment to the player.
You effectively cap out at 80 - you can have all guns and armor to X - and at level 80 you have enough skill points to go Rank 6 in most of the profiles - so 80 is the player's effective cap - sadly, the enemies continue to scale up to 132, whereas you stagnate.
It makes the game a pain in the butt. I have been posting about it for like 2 months now. Kett Cardinal on 132 insanity has 15 rockets worth of health - not including her stupid shield orb. Basically, way more than a level 20ish would face at the same point in progression.
If you're gonna play insanity I would actually recommend you do it on a fresh character to save yourself stress. I have done it both ways - and the new file way was much easier by my own personal opinions.
That said - the difficulty is a joke either way - just more health for everything.
