Safe Mode vs Wuss mode

[Magmarock]

If you're interested, Draugemalf is also looking at the AI on a Frictional Games-based Discord server: https://discord.gg/dKNcz4A

He may be able to answer some questions about Safe Mode and the AI, since he has more or less spent the past few days looking into it.

Hey I discovered some more difference between these modes through playing the game and I thought I'd post them here for references. I will try to keep spoilers to a minimum.


******Minor spoilers******


1. first monster encounter (the Construct)
normal: he'll chase you and knock you out. 2 knockouts= game over.
Safe Mode: he won't chase, the screen still distorts, prolonged contact will knock you out there is no game over.
Wuss: He won't chase you, he won't knock you out, there's no distortion.

Second monster (The Flesher)
Normal mode: looking at him makes him teleport and chase you
Safe mode: looking at him makes him disappear
Wuss Mode: looking at him distorts the screen and he ignores you.
Cure chase sequence: in both normal and wuss he chases and kills you. In safe mode he slowly follows you and knocks you out if you chase him.
