8 More Video Game Difficulty Levels For The Criminally Insane

8. Left 4 Dead 2 Expert Realism Mode

The Left 4 Dead series is a fantastic gaming twosome, letting people all over the world slog it out against a horde of unrelenting enemies. The games were so ahead of their time with the inception of the AI Director who would modify how many and what types of nasties to throw at the players depending on how well (or how badly) they were doing.

To put it plainly, neither game is a cakewalk with even the easiest mode able to take down some teams if they haven’t got every corner checked and ever map memorised. Yet that’s what makes the game fun, learning about the best ways to approach problems and screaming your throat raw at your team to pick you up.

Well those screams, they’re going to be silenced very, VERY quickly when it comes to Left4Dead 2’s Expert Realism mode. Here you get a combination of the hardest difficulty setting which includes incredibly challenging AI, increased damage for every enemy, AND friendly fire, but also Witches that can kill you in one hit, another damage boost for everything else and the removal of team outline so it's to describe which corner you’ve been backed into.

The game on any other mode is a laugh riot, but here, well the Witch isn’t the only one crying, put it that way.
