I don't really think resurrection is the issue. A big part of the 'easiness' of the game is that the areas don't escalate well. Consider that at each breakpoint (Island 1, island 4, post Demonis) you have a 'gate' that prevents you from going further. Up until that gate you have a certain strength of enemies, roughly scaled by zone. Demonis has larger stacks than Greenwort.
The problem is that these stack sizes are not making a very good curve. All the armies pre-demonis are TINY in comparison to Demonis. You can clear out that entire area with basically no problem once you get some levels, because the fights aren't scaling with you.
Or think of it like this: Let's say it takes 5 level 10 fights to get to level 11. Or, 5 fights of a specific level to get to the next level. There are like 200 level 30 fights to 35 fights! Then none of levels 36 to 43, and then some at level 44 onward. You basically have to fight these 'easy' lower level fights for a long time before you are given any challenge again.
Afterall, I don't think anyone will really call the first four islands too easy. It's just that there are gigantic stretches of the game that aren't particularly hard because the enemies aren't getting larger.
