what difficulty do you play first

[Juggerdan]

Well the first time I player Penumbra: Overture, I played it in the Hard skill. I love a challenge, and I like taking lots of punishment and getting a good shit-kicking, but that’s just me and my sadomasochist nature. Playing Hard first has it’s pros and cons, the first time you play, you will face a challenge, along with the surprise of the horrors of the game to await ahead. The bad thing about playing the Hard skill, is once you beat the game, you will want to play it again, and you will want to choose the skill you haven’t played yet. Normal and Easy are too simple, and therefore most of the thrill is taken out of the game, after that. But I found that playing on Hard was the best, because killing your enemies is harder, and your best defense is running and hiding. But beating the spiders and cave wolves to death with the rock hammer is fun in Normal or Easy mode, where as it isn’t so simple in the Hard journey.
