Really enjoyed the video. I just did hardcore myself and while I tried to space my saves I somehow got through without ever dying anyway. That was a weird feeling cause on one hand I never had to repeat anything but on the other I never had that first death to loosen my nerves so I ended up so insanely stiff by the end I needed to go for a walk after lol maybe shouldn't have done it in one go. Anyway your commentary was great and I had alot of fun seeing the roller coaster of a journey you had trying to do this.

I died 5 times, but 4 of those deaths were in the rooms literally directly after my saves, so either I knew how to pick em, or I just let my guard down because I could loosen those nerves. Twice at the tripod fight at the end of chapter 9, once just after the decontamination room in chapter 10 (my only real death that cost me about 20 minutes), and twice at the start of chapter 13 when you're trying to hack your way past the Earthgov door.

The hacker suit and the hacker contact beam are for having a dead space ignition save. I don't think(?) there's anything for dead space extraction.

After having just completed the "impossible" difficulty mode on DSR (and a playthrough of DS2 on "Zealot" just before that), I think that I, too, am finally worthy enough to be so audacious as to assume I have what it takes to pull off a "deathless" DS2 run -- on "hardcore", no less. I completed the DSR run without any shenanigans that involve quitting to avoid a legitimate death (which surprised even my clumsy ass, since I only ever die due to the environmentor scripted events like the tentacle bondage). And in DS2, I only died like 2 times because of just very poor choices on my part. Like not having any health packs while trying to go up the elevator to the solar array 😢 (or getting too complacent with health conservation at the end of the game, during the section where "übermorph" roleplays an obsessed high schooler that's got the biggest crush on Issac lol). So yeah, if I actually use my two brain cells in tandem (rather than only individually) I just MIGHT be capable of pulling it off.

I did Hardcore mode and have this game 100% Platinum. Did it years and years ago. But l used the Infinite Power Node glitch at the beginning of the game. So was able to fully upgrade my Plasma Cutter as that was the ONLY weapon l used in the entire game. And bought tons of health packs with the credits l found, since l didnt need to buy power nodes. I also fully upgraded my Suit, Stasis, telekinesis etcetc, which made it alot easier. But l still died alot. And when you die and lose hours and hours of work you sit there feeling traumatised lol people who did it without the glitch would of made it even Harder for them. It's a nerve wracking experience. Keeps you on edge the entire game. Especially when you are attacked and only just survive with almost no health and have the tiniest Red blip on your suit left lol I used my 3 saves different than most people. I used my first save before the Solar array, then my 2nd before the Drill Ride, then my last on chapter 13. I LOVED Dead Space 2. They Remade the 1st one for PS5, l really REALLY hope the Remake the 2nd one to, as Dead Space 2 was so much better in every way.

You COULD break it up into 1.5-2 hour chunks. Or you could be this madlad who decided to go for the whole run in one sitting, something that takes about 5-6 hours in a planned casual playthrough on Zealot. Props

Hard core was so very frustrating because I died a lot but it was also the funnest I've ever had playing the game, and felt like I was truly trying to "survive". Edit: this video was a huge motivation for me, watched it several times while I was going through hard core mode.

I use 3 pulse rifles and scum out the free ammo they give by upgrading nodes. And bring the delete cannon because because selling efficiency is important. End the game with more money nodes and built up ammo. 5k for respec isnt bad. 4 ammo cost for 300 rounds or more if efficent. Pulse is also the bomb for the horde. And the rest is just more telekinesis when i can Edit: its an old game i bought all the packs because i loved the series. Free guns from the start makes fresh starts more interesting. Also dont like plasma cutter at high difficulty

Aaah that glass room is the worst! It got me too. Holy crap on no saves though. You are very committed, especially after dying in the final gauntlet... strange though, normally you get a free save mid-way through the game because the Xbox version came on two discs. Surprised you passed over the room after space fight cutscene where there's like six leapers ambushing you plus the pregnant. That was miserable to experience. Leapers are by the far the most dangerous enemies and I think their damage on hardcore should've been tuned down just a tad, or maybe slow them down slightly mid-air. Was waiting to see if you'd died in the final scene to debris like I did, yikes was that ever disappointing. But I also saved prior to eye needle scene so meh. Overall DS2 was a magnificent game considering what limited budget EA gave Visceral to work with. We can only imagine how much better the game may have been if EA weren't such greedy bastards (the multiplayer mode wasn't received well either and it seemed like EA was adamant about them designing it, further wasting time and resources).
@mintmuffled
8 ай бұрын
I played it on Steam this time, so there wasn’t the chapter 7 save. There was originally a clip of that room I think. It had text like “how many leapers is too much?” And a counter ticked up for each one. I ended up skipping it though. I had heard that EA insisted on the multiplayer too. They were just learning how to harvest their players with microtransactions, and that was the only way a horror game would be financially viable according to their standards.
