"Next game", wich difficulty should I choose?

Post by Shalott »

Im playing the game for second time, the time I finished I got the "Live your life letter" from Mary to James, now I want to play for a second time and I see that I can choose the difficulty and the riddle difficulty... what should I pick? does this affect the ending I get?...

Thanks 8)

You should have been able to select the difficulty level even the first time through :shock:

Anyway...

This does NOT affect the ending you get.
Action level Beginner and Easy are very simple to complete, unless this is your first shooting-like game. Normal and Hard are obviously tougher.
Riddle level Easy and Normal do not offer much resistance for the mindfu**ing side of the adventure; Hard riddle level is the only one that matters if you're a fan of puzzles. There's not such a plenty of it, though... just a couple are really time/brains consuming. Just one, maybe.

It effects nothing story wise. It just makes it harder, and when you hit the wall with certian weapons, they bouce off, all realistic like. :P Now though, you can find certian items, and if you get them all, you'll get arguably the best ending, Rebirth.
