What a great game! This is a proposed challenge which only uses Garcian. Did the first level as some sort of preliminary testing. Cold, hard facts about Garcia as a playable character:

The good:
– very tough, can take many hits
– has Down Attack (this fact isn’t documented in the game?)
– eventually gets a weapon upgrade (too late, but better than nothing)

Bad things about Garcian:
– separate from other personas (logistic difficulties all around)
– stuck with Vision Ring
– weak weapon, only 5 shot clip
– no thick blood upgrading possibilities
– no special skills (except reviving, which won’t come to an use)
– death = game over

Other characters than Garcian are only allowed for puzzles or other mandatory parts. If you have to move through enemy rooms with non-Garcian characters, you either avoid the enemy or ram into them like a man. No upgrading at all with any character.

Does this challenge sound reasonable?

*most new stuff explained in the vids that were uploaded recently*

– It may be possible to break out of any cutscene in the game, even those that follow a room transition. However, for you to be able to access menu before the cutscene begins, it demands lag or something else which might be completely random… I have positive experience on 1 cutscene that began after room transition, the one in which Travis lands to the floor below with Alessa in his arms.

– I’ve found a strange glitch (using the tesla rifle, maybe possible with any firearm) with which you can “change” your idle stance to look like the weapon stance. You can’t attack (you just examine things with X instead of attacking), and just moving ends the glitch. This game has so many mysterious things like this… loose ends of sort.
