Reduced number of player respawn points. Reduced ammunition. Enemies inflict greater damage. Enemies were more accurate (even with their mid range machine gun) Player has reduced and faster-depleting health. Respawn cost increases to $100, and the player will be sent back to the main menu if they don't have enough money. Navigation Arrow is removed completely. Difficulty cannot be changed during gameplay. No auto-aim. Shields take longer to recharge. Beating the game on this difficulty earns the Achievement/Trophy "Auld Lang Syne".

Yeah fuck that

I dunno. I just bought the DLC and it's taking an eternity to update, so I can't even play to see if I have that option. Very annoying

lol I can't even fucking aim. And apparently there are vigor "combos." I think I'll stick with replaying on Normal again and challenge myself by trying to not use the machine gun every single time.

I found a combo by accident early on and used it for the entire game. I'd shoot crows out and then light them all on fire. FLAMING CROWS. They fucked everyone up

I need to try that!

The ending of Burial at Sea episode two seems to spoil the ending of Bioshock one :(

Have you played episode two yet Cart?

Yeah I did as soon as it came out (:

I already knew most of those details anyway. You aren't spoiled for Burial's ending right? You just know that it spoils BioShock 1?

and lol I didn't even use the machine gun for the majority of the game. I always switched between shotgun for up-close combat and carbine for long-range

What'd you use Curt?

I usually used machine gun, burstgun and the other vox gun whose name I can't remember right now. I also had a lot of luck with hand cannons early on, but they dropped off a lot in usefulness.

I tend to be a shitty player on my first playthrough of anything. Instead of trying to figure out the best combination for weapons I would just hoard the ones that had already worked for me. I don't think I even knew how to change vigors until a little bit before Emplorium.

I used the carbine almost exclusively for long or close range. Carbine, sniper rifle, hand cannon. I always prefer single shot weapons so that I have to try to be accurate. Popping off head shots with either of those three was always glorious

Shotgun I don't think I fired a single time until the last 10% of the game. At that point I was using carbine/shotgun back and forth. Didn't bother with a single Vox weapon

lol accuracy. If I was shooting in the general direction of the enemy, I was pretty happy with myself. At one point I was using the RPG as often as possible

It's an achievement to kill a Handyman by only shooting him in the heart. You can't hit him anywhere else during the fight. That's so tough. FUCK Handymen! I'm gonna try it

Oh, one thing that I totally forgot about until now. Remember when you make the choice to determine which necklace Elizabeth would wear? I think one was a cage and one was a bird. What's the significance of that decision? I hardly noticed whichever one I picked for the rest of the game

I looked it up after I got done playing.

Apparently

The Elizabeths during the final lighthouse part don't wear your chosen pendant, possibly meaning its not your Elizabeth who drowns you
