Can you change difficulty?

[Joshy Pooh Bear]

Anyone know?

[Reborn]

well you could pick the difficulty at the start of all the other games but couldnt change it mid way through. honestly you'll probably be able to change the difficulty on the fly if you need to since its taking more QOL stuff into account.

hope not

if you started on hard you should finish on hard, there shouldn't be a way to go up or down in difficulty mid-game

Well I just wanted to know, but since you went there, it just gives players options without restarting an entire campaign. It doesn't hurt anyone that doesn't use it if they don't want to.

then start on easy first

In original you had EASY, NORMAL and HARD. After first playthrough you can replay in NG+ on same difficulty you selected. Also you unlock IMPOSSIBLE, but you have to start from scratch and beat the game again for NG+
How they will do it now, no-one knows. Asking questions who no-one can answer...

Why wouldn't it? 1. 2. 3 and wii have difficulty. Hard-core in 2 only allowed you to save 3 times. If you died. Have to restart from the beginning

I just hope you cannot change difficulty midway through the game....like choosing impossible mode then just switching to easy when you feel like...not that big of a deal but yeah don't like that.

i hope it will be like in Dead Space 2

But why don't you like it? Just don't do it then. Some of us don't have a ridiculous amount of time to game and would rather notch the difficulty down if we realize we made a mistake rather than having to start over. Yes I know what get gud is.

Its not online competition or a leaderboard thing. If you want limitation apply them to you. More options are always better, if a person like to sneak and cheese they way in a game doing that, let them. Its a single player game, let people do what they want.

no better way to play then hardcore

Buy game.
Start game on easy.
Play 50secs.
See if you can change difficulty mid game.
Yes, carry on playing.
No, refund the game.
