When it comes to particulalry tricky games like the Dark Souls series or Cuphead, you'll find an army of twisted individuals that love to pile on even more challenge by imposing their own rules during their runs. This could be anything from using a certain weapon to not dying a single time. It's the latter that's the subject of today's story, as one 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:Star Wars Jedi: Survivor player tasked th﷽emselves with beating the game on Jedi Grand Master difficulty without dying.
First shared by (thanks ), this player goes by u/GOODGAME_ETHAN on Reddit, and has a pretty strict set of rules to abide by, forcing themselves to start the game from the beginning whenever they're killed or fall off a ledge in an attempt to make the game as realistic as possible.
To try and start out their permadeath run on the right foot, they do a whole lot of prep work by grinding Star Wars: Jedi Survivor's first tutorial level to acquire every single skill in the game, giving themselves a significant power boost early on. Considering a lot of people don't even acquire all of the skills naturally as they complete the game, you can imagine the amount of time this took.
Seemingly prepared to set out after presumably dozens of hours of prep work, this player's perilous journey almost immediately comes to end in the most tragic and heartbreaking way imaginable. Instead of being taken down by one of the game's big bosses in a blaze of glory, u/GOODGAME_ETHAN is popped out of the air while jumping over a large gap by a random Stormtrooper.
There seems to be a few arguments surrounding whether this should be classified as a death or not, since the game plops Cal Kestis back on the platform in return for a fraction of his health. While that would be an easy out, they maintain that the run they're on classifies falls as deaths, meaning they now have to start all the way back at the beginning of the game, prior to having spents hours grinding for every skill. Props to sticking to your own rules I guess, many would've folded at that point.
