Difficulty doesn't increase. You can switch to Hard Mode whenever, sure, but you'll want to use weak weapons if you don't want to 1-shot early-game enemies. You'll find extra quests in NG+, but for the most part the game plays just as it did in NG. 1 reason people often move on to another round is that... as fun as post game is, eventually it's a nice change to wake up in Cassardis with the sun shining. The regular game has a very different feel from postgame.
