Pro tip! Go to settings > life > difficulty and change it from nightmare or hardcore to regular, easy or blissful.

It might be hard to figure out all the menus because the UX team really did a dirty one there, but it is doable.

Stay safe.

We both know those options are pay to win.

Have you just performed a full blown FATALITY on my innocent, optimistic, delicate comment? Funk you, kind sir!

[–] MelodiousFunk@slrpnk.net 3 points 1 month ago (1 children)

I debated commenting given the c/, but my cynicism won out.

If it makes you feel better, I got funked pretty bad last night changing before bed. Left armpit was mysteriously stanky. Wasn't planning on showering right then but there was no other option. It was that bad.

That option is grayed out in my context menu! Help what do I do??

You have to use administrative credentials to unlock these options.

I'm lazy and this sounds like work. Can you just tell me the cheat codes?

[–] somnuz@lemm.ee 4 points 1 month ago

No problemo, just use Up-Up-Down-Down-Left-Right-Left-Right-B-A.

Unfortunately the options are only available to those who managed to get the "upper class" DLC before starting a new game. The difficulty is randomized and locked upon creating a new game which is rather unfortunate

let's not marginalize the undead

"...but did you die?"

[–] LostXOR@fedia.io 2 points 1 month ago

Well, so far. But going by historical data things are looking pretty good!

[–] gofsckyourself@lemmy.world 2 points 1 month ago

Define "survive"

[–] OldManBOMBIN@lemmy.world 1 points 1 month ago

Not yet I haven't

Today's not over yet, buddy!

This gives me "I, Garland, will knock you all down!" vibes
