Yes, and I believe they could choose higher than standard difficulty, though the build they played was just inherently harder than the build you guys have seen publicly. I didn't really hear any complaints that the game was too easy
One guy tried to play on hardcore mode and got wrecked.
That sounds good.
Though, is the mode actually titled "Hardcore?" I didn't mind it on New Vegas where it meant additional game mechanics but if you use it here this could sound a little too "elitist".
It's hardcore. It's tuned to be REALLY hard. It kind of is elitist
Any chance of including a Hell or Hell mode like in Devil May Cry 4?
