I already feel pity for the poor soul that dies in the last encounter of the Game in Permadeath mode

Going to be interesting to see if they allow Accessibility options in this mode... I'm curious how people feel about that.

Why are quite a bit of games having permadeath nowadays? And this is a 30 hour long game so that makes it more insane.

Nice additions. Platinumed this bad boy shortly after launch. Will still wait for a PS5 patch before diving in though.

So trophies are now DLC huh?
The difficulty is the dlc content, and it brings new trophies along with it. This is nothing new, and hasn't been for a decade.

Wouldn't do it even if the game was 3 hours long. Seems like something I wouldn't enjoy.

Good luck to those that want to go for it. 😋

Well it's enabling you to play the game in a new way, so yeah kinda. Increases the value of the game.

I'd say part 2 is less replayable than part 1, but still this is good. After the Plat I'll just wait for PS5 update myself.

I see sorry didn't realise it was a new game mode.

Still some actual story DLC would have been nice to read about.

Can't remember doing a permadeath trophy since Dead Space 2, which had three manual saves only.

Although I played it on hard and found it way too easy, I will never get that Grounded trophy

I just can't do the Rat King. Had to put it down to the lowest difficulty and I still freaked out every time that fucking thing came near me.

Man, I enjoy permadeath in some games but this one would just be a nightmare imo. I feel like I'd die to a certain encounter later in the game multiple times. Seems brutal in a game with so many insta-death mechanics.

For 3 hours I would do it, lol.

I REALLY love difficulties like these.

I just finished the game twice to do all the trophies, can't see myself picking it up for another two play through anytime soon. Definitely don't hate myself enough to try and do both of those things at once.
