Can You Beat CULT OF THE LAMB With No Weapon or Curses?

For future reference, Lemon, you can actually counter Shamura’s power by warping out. If you escape, you avoid killing your followers.

I still remember that 1st playthrough constantly feeling on edge, sense sharp as a razor and jumpy as a mf. that constantly over the course of a 100 somthing hours is imho a better horror experience than aforementioned classical entries into the genre. Horror wants to scare you. Good horror doesn't need to, to make you feel scared. that which is unknown commands the greatest fear

I am loving the non-souls content you're coming out with. It's nice to see a challenge runner do games that aren't back breaking difficult and it sounds like you're actually enjoying these runs (or at least most of them). Souls were good, but variety is the spice of life. My ideas for challenge runs are not great, but more games I'm hoping to see in the future: * Monster Hunter (world or otherwise) : I've recently fallen in love with this series and loved your kinsect run. I would even like seeing non challenge run playthroughs of these. * Metroid (any of them) : There HAS to be some untapped challenge run potential here * Resident Evil / Silent Hill / Horror games in general : horror games usually make good challenge run / interesting puzzles

[@the_solomon_sage8431]

Metroid is a hard one to plan a challenge for; in most games all the items you gather are required for progression, with the exception of missile expansions and E-tanks. pacifist isn't really viable, since some rooms lock Samus inside until all enemies are defeated. the most likely challenges that could be done are 1. Missiles only (which will tak a LOT of resource juggling), or 2. One-Tank challenge (late game bosses will be a PAIN)

[@gobywan]

@@the_solomon_sage8431 I was going to suggest morph ball bombs only, but I can already think of a couple rooms you need to power bomb in where you can't necessarily kill every enemy before doing so. I'm not an SM expert, so maybe I'm wrong, but I feel like that challenge will inevitably get killed by some minor enemy on the other side of a wall or floor.
