If I already have save files for max payne that give me access to harder difficulties do I need to start over or can I use them? wondering if multiple plays within the time limit is supposed to be part of the challenge

That Little Demon posted:

yeah the reason I made that last trophy a plat was because it sounded like it would mean doing 3 playthroughs, which I didn't really love in the first place. And the broken adaptive difficulty thing is making me think that higher-difficulty playthroughs would be even more redundant and no fun anyway. We were kind of reaching since Max Payne doesn't have a lot of trophy material lol.

I think the trophies need a little tweaking, here's my suggestion for a replacement set:

: Beat the game
: Defeat the Trio (Pilate Providence, Joe Salem, and Vince Mugnaio)
: Beat New York Minute mode

so how do i start the twins' guardian fight? there's a tablet that talks about fives witches plus one more, and a room on the right side has a fifth witch show up when the first four are defeated, but nothing seems to happen if i let her live or defeat her. the witch room on the left only has the four, no other one shows up

I'm too much of a fool for the gate of illusion. there used to be a ghost, but it's gone now

A little brother hooked me up and now i have the dragon head but it does nothing to Bahamut's Wedge

The Xbox version of Max Payne ran flawlessly when I played the series the year before last if that's an option for anyone struggling with the Steam version

How do I make progress in the final area? All the entrances are dead ends, or blocked to become dead ends. I was able to get to a dais from the entrance at the end of Endless Corridor. After that I'm stuck.

edit: nevermind, that thing that doesn't look like a ladder is actually a ladder

If this is shrine of the mother, it took me so long to just try that ladder since it looks all blocked up. First thing I did after getting bombs was go try to clear the rocks around it so I could finally enter the area proper lol

yeah the comic book scenes are 4:3 as well and buttons are displaced in it but it's still playable so far.

as long as the game's playable i'll stick to the steam version for now. only did a quick 5 minute test run to see if the game ran on a modern PC
