Amnesia: The Dark Descent (PC) - Hard Mode, No Saves, No Lantern, Key Items Only (Agrippa Ending)
38Amnesia: The Dark Descent done on Hard mode without any saves, no lantern and grabbing only the essential items to beat the game (as well as doing the Agrippa ending, not taking any monster/fall damage and not doing any nonmandatory skips).
Hard Mode Changes:
-Sanity dropping to zero results in death.
-Monsters runs faster than the player's speed, patrol for a longer period of time, deals double ammount of damage (hit kill 99% of the time) and can spot the player a lot easier.
-No danger music when monsters are around.
-The game is significantly darker, setting spots without lightsources at 0% brightness regardless of your settings; 'darkness eye adaptation' is also a lot weaker.
-Autosaves are disabled and manual saving costs 4 tinderboxes.
-Dying reverts to the last save instead of respawning.
-The amount of oil and tinderboxes pickups are drasticly reduced.
-Oil barrels always gives 10% oil.
Run Notes:
-The skip at 2:40 is mandatory for this run as the game won't let you proceed without the lantern.
-15:22 This is one of the most consistent strats I found for dealing with this enemy without having to wait for him to go away.
-16:01 While not entirely safe, it is a very consistent way of dealing with this enemy most of the time, but I'd recommend to just wait if you're doing it without Saves.
-20:35 This can go very wrong, make sure to practice this before trying.
-22:04 Open this door if you wanna backtrack faster later, trust me :)
-I didn't find any safe strats to run by the Sewer Brutes.
-The brute at 50:30 did not hear me at first, but I thought it did and didn't feel like risking it, so I decided to just go back and re-enter the room, making him despawn from the map.
-52:40 Make sure to wait for the 'Sanity increase' trigger otherwise you'll most likely die inside the Inner Sanctum.
