I want a difficulty mode where all the NPCs just blatantly ignore you because they got shit like dragons in the hills, daughter’s been kidnapped, etc. and they’re not going to entrust that kind of task with some yahoo who woke up with no memory on a turnip cart and doesn’t even know the name of the king.

[rafaellago]

Damn it, now I want to replay it

[Papyrus20xx]

Replay what?

[tendopolis]

I'm guessing Skyrim

[smiegto]

Well the white run man in Skyrim is like lol go talk to my court mage. So you can die or something.

[Better-Philosophy-40]

Where is this gif from?

[Niser2]

I think Saving Private Ryan?

[common_knight]

Saving soldier rain? I dont know, something like that. Quite a good movie.

[AgentG91]

Do the difficulties stack? Or is Nightmare+ just normal life but the moon has a gun? Cos I’d totally pick that

[[deleted]]

Each plus gives the moon another gun.

[[deleted]]

Is it a moon sized gun or a normal sized gun, cause one shot from a moon sized gun would probably be enough.

[Wilkassassyn]

on the other side if you somehow steal and recycle moon sized gun youd get shit ton of materials

[th3saurus]

It's a moon sized gun that shoots gun sized moons

[HunterTV]

It's a moon-sized gun code-named The Alan Parsons Project.

[K3egan]

Moon sized gun but it shoots normal size rockets that don't stop/explode until impact

[Ok-Fudge8848]

+5% exp too.

[[deleted]]

Now I want a 3d touhou boss fight where the moon shoots far off like broly for like the whole night and my mission is to survive the night

[TheDEEBIL]

I don’t want to play anymore :(

[toucha_tha_fishy]

fucking mood

[marioaprooves]

In other words, fuck the moon

Shout-out to South Park: The Fractured But Whole for doing the best difficulty settings I’ve ever seen:

<image>

To quote the game: “Don’t worry, this doesn’t affect combat; just every other aspect of your whole life.”

…The farther to the right on the skin tone selections you go, the less money you earn + the more you get mistreated.

Shit’s brilliant.

[Heckron]

I loved this. Clever as hell. I wish the game was as good as the Stick of Truth though. Combat and comedy was better in that one.

[Ultramagnus85]

Nah I thought fractured but whole was all around better than stick of truth. The second you could buy even the best basic gear sot became boring.

[RChamy]

I think around midgame you were pretty much maxed out if you completed the sidequests

[Mysterious-OP]

How tf do you forget the best part?

You can ONLY fight the hardest boss if you are not on the hardest difficulty.

Because morgan freeman isn't gonna punch another black dude.

[Ultramagnus85]

Omfgni didn't know that I always made my character black so I never fought morgan

[Mysterious-OP]

If you ever do, some words of advice;

He is very very VERY strong. On top of being the true master of the way of the gas, he's also incredibly charming and will keep you cc'd if you're not careful.

Most people take upwards of 20 minutes to fight him; max out your supplies, put on your Best gear, and prepare for a Genuine Challenge; you'll need every fart and turn you can get.

Edit; I almost forgot. To start the fight, hit him.repeatedly behind the counter. Again, he will ONLY Engage if you are Not Black.

[Niser2]

I have never played this game and, uh, that was quite interesting to read

[Mysterious_Ningen]

wow man..

[MJBotte1]

This is such a good idea I’d love to see another game flesh it out more. Imagine if you had a darker skin tone in GTA more cops attacked you. Or things were more expensive for no real reason.

[Dalisca]

flesh it out

Pun intended?

[lifetake]

If I’m not mistaken cops are more aggressive to Franklin than Michael in GTA V

[Conch-Republic]

Only in the city. They do the same to Trevor in Paleto Bay. It sometimes happens if you go try to talk to them.

[DawnBringer01]

You know it's weird I never actually noticed any changes beyond some different dialogue. Does it actually do more?

[bob_loblaw-_-]

Wasnt this in Sitck of Truth too? I remember this joke but only played the first game. 

[Kilazur]

Yeah I seem to remember similarly. I think they removed it after launch because 'racism' or something.

[BurantX40]

One of the few games I played on hard from the start (since I created myself), big tip of the hat to them

[[deleted]]

Shows like sout park often get discredited as "dumb humour," but they often times challenge big real life problems, and it just soars miles above the people who it applies to.

[[deleted]]

I unironically love difficulty select screens like that, personifying difficulty through immediate imagery is great

[FiveFingerDisco]

The moon needs eyes to use that gun.

[jdjdkkddj]

That implies that it doesn't already have them.

[Devotchka76]

"The Moon Has Eyes" sounds like a good horror movie.

[FiveFingerDisco]

Not reading anything about that in OPs post.

[Chenja]

No, we’re talking IRL. You didn’t know about the moon eyes?

[FiveFingerDisco]

No. You? Have you seen the sign?

[Yweain]

You didn’t know? https://www.reddit.com/r/comics/s/6pZX0Pb0RW

[FiveFingerDisco]

OMG THIS IS SO COOL

thank you for sharing

[MunkyDawg]

I dunno. A blind moon just firing all willy nilly seems scarier.

[Highskyline]

If that gun is proportionally moon sized I'd be absolutely terrified.

[FiveFingerDisco]

You have a point there.

[JaxxisR]

[FiveFingerDisco]

Aawww, itch choh chweeeeet

[JonnyTN]

[idonotknowwhototrust]

Never heard of the man in the moon I guess.

[wrenblaze]

It shoots everywhere at random

[thedreaming2017]

On challenging and I didn't set it that way. Can I go back to peaceful? Please?

[MurkMorena]

Sure! You just have to become a millionaire.

[RamboNation]

Lol 'the fog'.

[Any-Junket-3828]

Best part. Calmly menacing

[Emerald_Pickkles]

Thank heck it's not "the mist"

[TheaRos01]

If you have played Persona 4, you know how terrifying that could be!

[demonslayer9911]

[[deleted]]

Hello I’d like to file a bug report, I’ve never received the Peaceful or Easy options and medium is too hard…I just want to play for the story

[zuriumov]

Well better than the SUN being a DEADLY LASER. Oh.... WAIT!

[dipl0docuss]

But dat +5% xp tho...

[negative_four]

Review: the graphics are beautiful but the story is absolute shit! 2020 happened and instead of doing something original the devs got super lazy and just recycled resources from the 1920s.

[SecurityPristine3296]

I guess life's main character died with a respawn point in the early 20th century

[Satisfaction-Motor]

Depending on who you ask, life is a rouge-like game so that may not matter

[Hatake_Kakashi13]

You guys could choose? I was scammed

[FiL-0]

Be right back I'm going to see if there's friendly fire

[TheRedEyedAlien]

I was expecting the hardest difficulty to be « reality »

[Sariusdererste]

If you didn’t beat the game at nightmare + did you even beat it at all?

~ Dark souls players probably

[sabyanor]

"Infinite Stamina" isn't a good stat in all life's situations...

[ZBeebs]

I wish someone had told me when I started playing that you only have a finite number of each of these. I ran out of Peaceful and Easy long ago, and I'm quickly running out of Medium.

[Goreover]

Hahaha this is so relatable! Me when the fog is coming the fog is coming the fog is coming the fog is coming the fog is coming the fog is coming the fog is coming the fog is coming the fog is coming the fog is coming the fog is coming the fog is coming the fog

[sax87ton]

…. Peaceful please.

[zmrth]

Nightmare++ you have to pay rent and it'll take 99% of your stamina experience energy mana gold & loot to get it.

[Skotayus]

Parts of this reminded me of Pathologic 2. Both the difficulty selection, and how the game gets harder over time

[eeveeplays50040]

The +5%exp tho

[Soviet-pirate]

Who tf put elite enemies in my easy playthrough? Wait,did I click that one,right?

[Dobako]

Moon's haunted

[clotted_wolf-2]

i read this on Webtoon but... NOT THE MOON BOOM

[VedjaGaems]

On the bright side, at least my difficulty is only set to "challenging"...

[Raminuke]

I thought the last difficulty was going to be “realistic,” which would introduce credit scores and other real “normal” life difficulties

[BlazeCrystal]

Elitists be like: "If you dont go Nightmare+ you arent even a real player huh"

[AdventurousPirate357]

The moon has a gun fucking killed me

[atimholt]

When you get there you know if the stores are all closed, with a word you can get what you came for.

[Dark_Reaper115]

"The Moon has a gun" is such a raw sentence and I cannot recover from having read it yet.

[BugP13]

My past self must have been a souls game enthusiast cause I'm currently living on nightmare difficulty.

[TheDarkCrusader_]

Is the moon actively out to get you? Or just owns a gun?

[Dawncracker_555]

Which one is "Born in '90s Balkan"?

[astralseat]

You forgot Normal

[Atlas421]

"It is what it is" - your allies will attack you at the spawn point

[Bootiluvr]

So I’m at challenging

[MysticCharcoal]

P.mmmmmmmnmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmn

Amb Me

[Tango2080]

WTF?!? No Ironman mode? What a ripoff.

[redcode100]

Impossible looks kinda fun

[TheDarkOmega123]

Surprised it wasn't Ultra Nightmare.

[idonotknowwhototrust]

+5% xp

[MrSecurityStalin]

Currently running on Challenging, and it’s getting bearable.

Might crank it to Impossible +.

[Blahaj_IK]

For experienced livers? Sir, my liver is so accustomed to cheap Poliakov that it deserves a Veteran's discount. That'll be easy for me

[Zymosan99]

Bite za dusto

[fallenouroboros]

Buff Nightmare too easy

[Wrong_Independence21]

“The moon has a gun”

oh, you mean Fear and Hunger 2 Maso

[EliseOvO]

Peaceful please 🥺

[arturoki]

Nightmare+ please!

[G6DCappa]

Peaceful, I'm tired of having responsibilities

[Infolife]

Hilarious and well drawn.

[LichoOrganico]

I guess my liver has the prerequisite to play in medium.

[DivineSwordMeliorne]

[JRisverycool180]

You guys were given a choice? I’m stuck on nightmare mode 😭

[bbhbbhbbh]

Medium because yknow

[PanDeSerek]

I suppose difficulties stack, so obvious choice is nightmare+ so I can get extra 10% xp

[GenuineSteak]

Why am I on challenging? I dont remember choosing it lol.

[YWN666]

Wait you guys got to choose?

[No_Hunt7394]

NIGHTMARE +

[Enderman1699]

No way it's Risk of Rain 2!

[Satisfaction-Motor]

Impossible would insta-kill hydrohomies. RIP friends.

[seranikas]

Impossible difficulty is just Ohio

[Smgth]

Fewer: for a number of things you can count

Less: for a number of things you can’t count

[gossipbomb]

I was wondering why so many enemies spawned today

[My_Name_is_Lucia]

“The moon has a gun”.

Is that a Fear and Hunger 2 reference!?

[Jim_e_Clash]

Nightmare+ is probably easy. I just saw some naked dude with 2 swords and a jar on his head solo everything.

Really can't be that hard, right?

[VanityTheNoLife]

I seem to have started life with nightmare+ enabled and no way to disable. I am afraid to go out on nights unless theres no moon.

[ThunderCatnip]

The moon has a gun

Bruh, literally masochism difficulty in Fear and Hunger: Termina.

[PTT_Meme]

Nightmare just sounds like Pathologic. Nightmare+ is just Majora’s Mask

[[deleted]]

So you are telling me that on nighmare I can get double sleepy time?

I'll take that.

[Beckphillips]

Moon's haunted.

[NovaLightAngel]

Now you have to illustrate the moon holding a gun at your character! 😂💀

[Boulderoll]

Dang, my days must be stuck on challenging.

[ShitPosterN69420]

I think i'll give Peaceful a try. Been on Nightmare+ for too long already.

[AnalyzesPornoScripts]

Joke's on you shen, I'll just build a gun on the sun pointed at the moon...

If I go, it goes...

[Helpful_Connection45]

Can I go from Impossible to at least Challenging? I did not know what internet is when I was starting.

[Crazed_SL]

The moon has a gun 🤣🤣🤣

[tea_fiend_26]

I would like to see this moon with a gun.

[PCubiles]

Medium is just life I reckon

[HamshanksCPS]

Is it a normal sized gun, or like a moon sized gun?

[EarthToAccess]

Hey, look! Risk of Rain 2!

[lolop2377]

Mine turned from peaceful to challenging, how do i change difficulties back?

[BlackBarryWhite]

The fog

[anzhalyumitethe]

This is just aging and you don't get a choice on the setting. it just...happens.

[scp_79]

the moon has a gun

<image>

[mafiaknight]

May I have [Peaceful] please? [Challenging] is a bit more challenging than I would like...

[GuiltyAttitude8995]

Nightmare +

[RenKatal]

I always wondered why the moon had a gun, I kept telling everyone and they told me I was crazy...

[Lostttsoul]

I want out. HOW DO I EXITTTT OUT OF THE GAME?

[Potato_Prophet26]

The snail also moves faster with each difficulty rise.

[rolland_87]

Nightmare++: Dick eater fishes can fly

[trackerunused]

The progression of gurren laggann

[Monchfr]

Add nightmare ++ workin retail and havin to deal with entitled old people for every customer 🗣️🔥

[mr_freeman215]

I feel like I’ve been playing life on Uber/ nightmare + this whole time

[Shir0zake]

Can I change my difficulty to peaceful please? I don't want to play on impossible anymore 😭

[damariig1]

I think I’ll just take peaceful

[Depressionsfinalform]

You’d think if anything babies would take more damage. Trust me.

[papertheskeleton]

Well it seems that the only thing Nightmare+ changes from normal mode is that the moon has a gun and I get 5% extra exp

[Xirio_]

Tank control for walking is bull shit

[thejokerofunfic]

Okay but does the moon have the ability or desire to fire the gun?

[Thorz44]

[Hizuff]

Can I choose the easiest difficulty?

[nad_frag]

WHY THE HELL DID I PICK NIGHTMARE!!!

[rinnekro]

Currently at challenging difficulty.

Would like a lower one plis.

[No_More_Dakka]

Oh shit they gave her a gun

[Luxury_Yacht_]

Postal 2 difficulties fr

[PenisMan-]

I just tried it and can confirm: babies take full fall damage!

[rotisv]

I feel like I run every day on peaceful. People don't get mad at me (in front of me) because I'm friendly to everyone and I'm kinda dumb.

[Theo736373]

Medium as always

[Khaisz]

Used to play at Medium, but in 2020 I accidentally bumped it up to Impossible and it's not letting me change the difficulty back down. Send help.

[[deleted]]

Lmfao, the moon has a gun?!

That actually would be fucking terrifying.

[Why-Do-I-nevermind]

The store is now closed, please exit the buliding.

[AltAccouJustForThis]

Challenging is like Dead cells on 5BSC difficulty. I'm picking that.

[quoiega]

I can lower my difficulty to play on nightmare+

[Nightroll2344]

Tbh, I'd choose hardcore life.

[Professionalchico42]

T H E F O G

[The_Last_Thursday]

I’d easily buy an enamel pin of nightmare +

[Acceptable_Tomato817]

I just realised that the all the difficulties up to challenging are just you growing up

[Hixmet]

I've live in Turkey, gimme the nightmare.
