Fucking beat it, all archives. God this game is brutal and tedious but everything that's not gameplay is top notch, it's a very disturbing game but I expected no less from the man who made Silent Hill 1. But yeah playing this just felt miserable even with a guide. The funny thing is that a couple changes would've made this game SO much more bearable
>+1 checkpoint on each mission
>secondary objectives stay done and you keep the archives upon death
>optional: you don't have to finish the mission once you get an archive or do a secondary objective, you can just exit to the stage select screen and keep everything
Because some of the missions are just infuriating: the school and the hospital ones, the entirety of day 3 (especially the one where you play as both Suda and Tamon Takeuchi) and also Harumi's missions aka Siren on European Extreme. The final mission can also go to hell and the fact that you have to do it twice doesn't help, absolute crapshoot
