For anyone who is watchng this video and thinking of doing their own hardcore run here's a fun tip. The bit where Ellie is opening the CEC doors, you DO NOT HAVE TO FIGHT ANY OF THE NECROS there. Just run around till she opens the door. Read this somewhere online, and then tried it myself. Thank me later! :)

Now that we have DS remake, DS2 is by far the easiest one to get the hardcore achievement done on. No permadeath = easy, especially since throughout the entire series you only die to environmental hazards rather than enemies... unless you suffer from major skill issues, some rocket hits you in DS3 or you're playing DS3 on impossible rather than hardcore, on that difficulty enemies are finally able to kill you if you don't plan your moves. Still, DS2 hardcore is a piece of cake in comparison, and a pretty easy achievement overall. 1.4% users got it for a reason, try Halo LASO (0.05%) and tell me about it.

This was a really well put together vid. I was on edge watching that 😂 Already looking forward to whatever you play next.

Hardcore is such a pain, but a fun challenge. my saves were first after the solar beam; second one before eye poke; third one was the last save station in DS 2. There were so many deaths between the start and flying through the beam debris I had the opening memorized and could play the first half crying.

I've been an achievement hunter myself since 2011, and I recently started a new thing called Completions only with my brother, which we started 2020 a little before covid, so seeing these videos really make me happy to know achievement hunting isn't dead. This is one of my fav achievements to get.

I recently gotten into Hard Core a few days ago. Not the first time, but this year's a start. I'm planning on getting an additional DLC with the weapons I mainly use to beat the game. I suggested myself to get the Supernova Pack because of the Contact Beam, Ripper, and the Forged Engineering Suit. But yeah, I can tell that the mode is for those who are absolutely ready and mentally trained. I saved at the end of chapter 5 where I'm about to see Daina. My next save will hopefully be around chapter 9, then on either chapter 11 or halfway into 13. Speaking of 13, the Reconstruction Room is a tricky one, but I would stasis 2 of those spinning things. A maxed out stasis will definitely help, but you'll only have a 4-second window to get to the next room.

@morgansbasement

11 ай бұрын

I didn't think the clarification was needed, but I would say Hardcore has the hardest difficulty *related achievement* in the game. Technically Hard Core enemies are Survivalist level and item drops are Zealot level, so you are correct in that the enemies are not the highest scaled enemies in the game. When you mix in the stress though, I'd say it's the hardest difficulty, but that's just based off my experience. I found Zealot to be easier since I could just trial and error thought the whole thing lool

I got this achievement. The only unfair parts are the needle in the eye and the final boss. The needle in the eye is so bullshit it doesn’t matter how accurate you are at the beginning, only the last few millimeters matters and Issac’s eye moves so much you can only try at random. The final boss teleports close to you, but depending on where you are, she can spawn right in front of you, killing you instantly. The good thing is that both of those parts are at the very end, you just need to make sure that you save right before the needle machine, or even before that because there’s a black hunter (the regenerating necromorph) that kills you in two hits, not to mention that the killing blow can sometimes animation-lock you when you would be able to dodge or heal. I played on pc and only used the plasma cutter and assault rifle I did it back in the days because I liked the game. But now that I grew up, I don’t recommend doing it, not if you have better things to do with your life

It was also the first pseudo-permadeath mode I had played, so with only 2-3 hours available after work, it was so stressful knowing I couldn't try again if I died. But ultimately, I think this is the easiest permadeath run I've done now, and being able to zoom through zealot with the foam finger afterwards, was hilarious lol

Omfg I would die. If you haven't gone back to finish, you should definitely do it. I KNOW YOU CAN DO IT

Note to Xbox players: It'll actually be a lot easier for you in the second half of the game due to the disc swapping creating a temporary save file. In other words, if you can make it to the start of chapter 7 without saving, you'll start at the beginning of chapter 7 if you die, even though you haven't saved. Again, this is TEMPORARY, as the game will send you back to the start of the game if you quit out. You can make good use of this, though, by having that be your "first" save and wait to use your first ACTUAL save in chapter 9 or 10. Two good points to save after that are the start of chapter 13 after you send Ellie away in the ship, and just after the eye poking machine or the start of the final chapter.

One saving grace is that this mode combines the 2 hardest difficulties; survivalist (2nd hardest) and zealot (hardest). In hardcore you take survivalist damage but zealot drops (ammo, credits, health). So technically this challenge could be even harder if you just play it on zealot with 3 saves.

@@ShadowBotboi I'll keep that in mind, thanks!

When I was a broke little boy from a third world country, I pirated this game when it came out and played through it so many times, that at some point I heard of this achievement and managed to do it... obviously since the game was cracked I didn't get anything but my own congratulations lol. IIRC I did it with only two saves, first save was ay chapter 7, and the second one was at chapter 12 because I was reserving a save just in case for the last 3 chapters as I hated the regenerating percomorphs, and the amount of other necros the game throws at you is just retarded after that.

Not using the 3rd save is criminal 😂 good for you though

I did all of these back on Xbox, then rebought them on PC and sadly learned that both 1 n 2 cheevs are no longer on steam. *edit* Wait load a save? no this was like the 1st one you had 3 save 1 life - and if you died it deleted the save and you had to start all over. Wtf?

That's so lame that the achievements aren't available on steam! I'm not sure what the edit is about, but if you're asking about Hardcore difficulty then it works like this: You get 3 saves to place where ever you want, and if you die you can choose to reload. There isn't a forced start from the beginning mechanic. I believe only Dead Space 3 and the Dead Space remake have that

There is a "standard" thumbnail for achievement videos, so I'm slowly making changes over time to differentiate my content. I've got some cool ideas to try out in the future, so we'll see how that blows over! And I'm glad you enjoyed!

One was included in the game, one wasn't. They're not the same thing. I don't care if people use it, I just didn't want to for this video. It's not a big deal 😂. I also take a few days between attempts, so it could be on for a few days. I've had games crash like that before. It chalks the mental when that happens

This is really easy once you beat the game 1 or 2 time to have a idea what going to happen because nothing changes besides damage and ammo count You safe on on 7 10 and 13 the best way to beat the game
