Which difficulty should did you choose?

Like the title says. Im considering playing on "Iam death incarnate". But is it actually fun or just a chore?

I went for Death Incarnate.

I was drunk when I started the game, so I did not do particularly well. I've stuck with it (haven't played all that much yet though...)

Enemies don't seem spongy, but they do pack a wallop. For a more "fun" playthough, I'd drop it down a notch to be perfectly honest.

Hard. Its the first one were BJ is smirking. It's pretty challenging in spots but I feel like I could go up one and be fine.

I chose the highest available (the one below Mein Leben, which is not available). I am a very experienced player but I really found it too difficult. I mean one thing is having the challenge, and another thing is to reload always the same checkpoint because you get a stray bullet from a guy that pops out of nowhere. Enemies looked like they had 100% accuracy and instant reactions, and one bullet = death.

I went down to terror-billy difficulty and everything is ok now, it feels so much easier though, somehow maybe they didn't really get the difficulties right, don't know what to say.

Depends what you are looking for and your skill level.. If you want to feel like a badass then don't play on this level. You have to pick spots and use cover and strategize on health and armor pick ups. It's was rough at first but I got use to it. There are also quick saves for really rough spots. You still take a fair bit of damage before death.
