      That's just really a bad idea . I went to play black ops 1 on veteran . They literally programmed the enemies accuracy to 90 % . So whenever i got to a gun fight it wasn't a fight it was just fending off unfair ai. It's possible to win but not for me . I have more games to play can't waste all day one game and barely get through half of it when it's that difficult.

      @Alex Luca In the meantime, i achieved this trophy. It’s insanely hard, but not impossible. If this truly was impossible to do, they would’ve left the trophy out. No game company would put in a trophy that’s unachievable 🤷‍♂️ but what you said is somewhat correct, you have to remember much of the layout of areas, especially in the mines. It’s really nothing else but trial and error. If you fail, learn from the mistakes you made and be better next time. It’s grueling to have to start over from the very beginning but that’s just the way it is. This is really only for hardcore gamers, like myself

    I played a game called "Legend of Mana" a cute game with a rather touching ending.
    It had a book that showed up in your (in game) house that allowed you to bump up the difficulty. It just added more health to enemies really. The catch is, you could keep making the HP of enemies higher and higher. As far as i can tell there was no limit.

    No mention of Halo 2 legendary? The Jackal Snipers alone would throw even the calmest into a fury rage that they destroy the walls in their home before going to the neighbors, steal their car, then crash into their house just to bring it down and feel some sort of peace.
    Let alone adding all the skulls that are like putting your nuts into an ice cream mixer set to high. Only an insane player that believes they’ve mastered Legendary would try. Only to find out they need a perfect run of the levels and if they by chance die from even the weakest grunt, then they must restart that level all over again, enemies are buffed to hell and back again, and you are little more than a ant trying to bite an elephant’s foot.

That thing is so messed up enemies run past your army searching for you. Grenades explode within mere seconds of throwing. And you die in one or two shots. I beat that damn game.

    PS.) DMC4 he'll n hell is set on son of Sparda mode so it's not too difficult. Dante must die is technically harder due to more enemies, stronger enemies that can kill you in 3 hits but have a ton of health, and ALL enemies have devil trigger. Making them even more durable and damaging.

      plus Hell and Hell mode ranking doesn't matter so you can just use Super characters whereas DMD mode still has incentive to go for those S ranks so no super characters if you want those sweet sweet S ranks (I haven't played Special edition so this is all referring to the original I don't know if the Special Edition added rankings for the And Hell modes)

Some enemies basically turn into bosses when they devil trigger lol. Dmc4 in general wasn't really that bad even on Dante must die. Nero's mission weren't that bad anyway. Dante's mission were a pain in the ass. It was still not nearly as insane as dmc3 was though.

    A plus one on Hell and Hell mode, I might not be the only one with this, but I make it even harder for myself. Normally you get 3 gold orbs, that means you can be hit a total of 4 times during a level, until you get a game over.
    Now, using gold orbs is -at least for me- accepting that I am weak, so instead of using any I restart the level. That means I either have a perfect run through all the fights and the level boss if there is any, or start it all over.

      Agreed. Veteran WaW is a whole other game, practically -- one of patience, skill, and a whole lotta luck, making it one of the most tense experiences I've ever gone through. Also, Heart of the Reich has the one checkpoint that is practically impossible to progress through on Veteran, and I only beat that due to a weird glitch. (I went into the co-op mode on Recruit, then returned to singleplayer Veteran Heart of the Reich, and for some reason, my health pool was as big as on Recruit, even though enemy accuracy was still at Veteran levels. Only died once past that infamous checkpoint, and when the game reset, I still had the Recruit health pool. I'm just glad I'm still not there anymore.)

    Only one I've attempted and completed is COD:WaW on veteran and all I could do by the end was put my head down in absolute mental exhaustion. I wanted to cry in the fetal position.

    COD4 in place of WAW simply because of the “One Shot, One Kill” ten minute survival sequence on Veteran. I had to full on glitch into MacMillan and make myself invincible and even then it took 50 tries to get it right. I refuse to believe it is possible practically.
    Also I’m so close to beating Ethan Must Die it aches, quite literally Marguerite on her last legs kinda close. It’s really short once you know what to do and when to restart. I think you got Ethan Must Die and Madhouse mixed up though, there’s only one boss and it’s Marguerite :p
