I think this is my favorite game ever, but I still haven't played the DLC yet (I swear I'll get around to it someday).

I'm not sure about the reduced frights setting. Are there jumpscares? And does it eliminate them or give more warning? I'm a complete coward when it comes to jumpscares ๐Ÿ˜ญ

Well now I'm very excited to play! I think for my first playthrough of the DLC I will have reduced frights, but the second time I'll try with the frights (then the third and the fourth and the fifth playthroughs LMAO). I wish I could go back to playing the base game for the first time again, it was such a good experience.

Multiple playthroughs? Did we play the same game?

[โ€“] StringPotatoTheory 2 points 2 years ago

Yeah! Someday I wanna get all the achievements, and there's probably some small things I missed when I played the first time
