Fantastic guide! Though I think it's worth noting that, besides the keys, you get something like 100 herbs a and ton of gunpowder for completing the Shooting Gallery. While perhaps not needed, it can help players feel more at ease in regards to their resources.
Dammit Jigz, for the love of Keeper can you please talk about The Evil Within, talk about what makes this beautiful games so special, you are like the only person who creates content for these games I'd very much appriciate your thoughts on this topic love ya.
The mark of a great guide is strats that are easy to replicate and that's exactly what this and your first Evil Within guides provide. Thanks for taking the time to make them. Thumbs up. :)
I already finished Classic Mode a few weeks ago, but I am watching anyway for support! You helped me on AKUMU so its the least I can do, plus I enjoy your commentary! Thank You!
I love this walkthrough, saved me so much time. though i feel like i get so unlucky at times trying to replicate what you do bro. I get Wrecked like half the time. and the other 50% I do perfectly lol.
yo Jigz! i dont comment much but i wanted to thank you for this amazing guide. as of just now i got the platinum and you were a huge help, things that seems hard really were easy if you knew what you were doing! thanks so much keep up the great work!
This helped out a lot, thanks for this! I saved in a couple different places like before the fire walk and right before all the bosses from the first game because i'm not as skilled, but I made it finally.
Thanks alot dude! Im writing this as the credits roll, you really helped me out and please keep playing evil within, either if the dlc come out or a sequel (hopefully). The only part I didn't follow your guide was on chapter 9 on the prison cells with the lost, I died there and once i came back i just killed them all before i opened the cell doors, then just left the witch wondering. Thanks again.
Thanks a lot man. I played this game for the first time when it was just released and after these years I thought why not get the platinum for this game? Really impressed by how smooth you pull these strats off, nice work.
Finished classic mode. I followed many strategies from your guide but you have to be a veteran and very aggressive player to do stuff like you. You are a beast running around and killing everything with that ease lol. Anyways thanks again Jigz, see you on streaming!
Nostos i agree with you. I have beaten classic following this guide but on some parts I had to do things my way because I obviously wasnt able to pull some stuff. Still its very useful.
You most definitly don't have to be. You can easily do the exact stuff he is doing. Easy as a cake. BUT ... what needs a lot of power, a lot of energy and willpower ... might be most definitly to find the easyest way through this game ... xD ... To have the passion to find out this simple methods ... hell ... I don't really wanna know through how much pain Jig was going through x_x ... Pain and dedication Dx
Thank you so much for the guide, I don’t think I would have been able to beat the game otherwise! You were also a great help for ew 1 Akumu mode. You’re a great player, I think I’ll check out on twitch for future games. 👍🏻
Thank u sir I wasn’t able to finish the evil within 1 on casual mode after i watched ur walkthrough i did it and platniumed the game also the evil within 2 i got the platinum today keep doing what ur doing ur awesome
Just beat it today. Wanna say thanks . This guide was super helpful. The parts I ended up dying on was the lab before the o'neal fight cause I tried to throw a bottle past a wall in front of me to distract it, and it ended up hitting the wall and alerting it. then it ran up and grabbed me as I tried to run away and it killed me. Died there, my first firewalk cause the fire enemy ate my shot and still hit me twice before I could heal. ( Pissed me off ), and the part after the fire walk cause I went the wrong way from the guide. All in all. Thanks a lot. I never thought I'd be able to have the patience to beat the game , but I did. thanks to you. I appreciate it, mang.
Thank you sir. This helped me to get the Classic. I did use some of my own tactics at couple points but mostly yours. Now I just need to do all collectibles and upgrades :)
Just recently finished akumu (for part 1) using your guide and scored the platinum trophy. Now I’m about to start my classic run for this game. Thanks for putting these guides out!
Thanks a lot for the fantastic guide man! I'm not nearly as good as you are so it took me a bit longer to replicate the strategies, but for the most part they were spot on. Thanks again, Jigzaw. I'll play your game any day :p
Thanks man! I took a long break after finishing it on nightmare on my first playthrough and now im back! Going for the platinum:) This guide helped tremendously and even though i died 100 times on classic, you got me through it every second on the way!.....even at timed when i decided "screw it"! Im doing it my way hahaha whatever it takes i guess! Cheers :)
Thank you very much Jigsaw, you really helped me finish this classic mode on pc with your video. A lot of your tips work just fine. Some are hard to pull off tho. One didn't work, it was the escape of the gardian chapter 5, she would catch up with me everytime at the back door. In any case, good job and keep up with the good work !
THX alot man!! Like in TEW 1 with akumu guide your classic guide helped through something that seemed impossible or at least nerve wrecking as hell for me!! In my opinion this one was even harder than akumu because you have no autosaves.....
Excellent guide buddy. I just finished Classic Mode for the first time tonight and got the trophy for it, and by proxy the Platinum. Thanks to you I can put this challenge behind me. While I didn't quite use this guide to the letter, I did use it as the mold to shape my run. The only difference is I went out of my way to grab all 32 keys and all ammo pouches. Probably wasn't too smart in hindsight since I never even used the keys, but it's not too terrible if you plan your saves around it. Thankfully I got the first part down in one try, but I was prepared to lose a couple of hours to a few failures in Chapter 3, as I figured it would serve me well later if I stretched out the early saves so I can be more liberal with them in the second half of the game. I got through Chapter 3 on the first try and well stocked to boot, so it wasn't hard to get my foot in the door, but I can see it being the most nervewracking part since it's a lot of time wasted for every failure and things can go wrong very easily to boot. Anyway, my seven saves: 1: Chapter 4 after reaching second safehouse AND completing the Shooting Gallery for the rewards 2: End of Chapter 7, after Paintings but before entering Theatre to face Stefano 3: End of Chapter 9, before Cabin fight 4: End of Chapter 11, after O'Neil fight 5: End of Chapter 13, before the fire walk 6: End of Chapter 14, before Theodore 7: Chapter 16, right before Myra By stretching out the first two saves, I was able to be spare enough in the second half to basically make a save every 2 chapters, in places that could be potentially very dangerous or be very bad if they go wrong, like the fire walk. It was basically 30 minutes between each save after the 2nd one, and save for a few hiccups (death to Lament in the lab before O'Neil, several deaths to DIsciples getting all the keys/pouches in Chapter 13), things went pretty steady after Chapter 7. And this guide is what both encouraged me to do it and enabled me to pull it off. Kudos for that, Jigzaw.
Finally finished classic mode, thanks a lot for this guide! Some parts were pretty hard to pull off but worked nicely when done exactly like in the video. Had one crash at the second painting before Stefano fight with the latest PS4 patch so anyone trying to do this beware :S
Great guide as always my man, you're the best I've ever seen at these two games, I've beaten Survival, Nightmare and Akumu on this one with really no issues. But this classic mode is really getting me hard, I made my first save at the beginning of chapter 4, this was before I found your guide, but I keep dying in chapter 7 to the "Hysteria"? the bitch in the "WHITE" dress, not red (a little homage to Krauser lol), but seeing your idea makes me think I can finally do it. I usually try to beat games on their harder modes with my own style of play, but this mode is kicking my ass, and it's that section in chapter 7 like I said that keeps getting me, but I'm gonna use your strat, thanks man!
Ah I just beat it two days ago lol I appreciate your guide nonetheless. You got me the plat for the first game... this is not as tough as 1 but it is more stressful!! Cheers Jigz
Omg my heart dude. I literally made it to chapter 14 with no saves left and ran out of supplies. I probably could've beaten the game but as much trouble that I had would've been faster to just follow you. I have so much supplies right now on chapter 4. Way more than I had following a different tutorial. Haven't saved yet so maybe I'll continue forward without Saving. Man, the struggle is real.
If yall are wondering about classic mode here are some answers. 1. The difficulty of classic mode is not entirely Nightmare since there are fewer enemies and all enemies and bosses on classic mode have survival health which is their base health but they still do nightmare attack damage. 2. No, you can not upgrade so green gel and weapon parts are nonexistent but instead, you get tons of gun powder, herbs, ammo, first aid kits, and syringes. 3. You can only save 7 times throughout the game but believe or not there is an 8th save buts that will be for the cleared game only. 4. Costumes are disabled in this mode leaving you with only the default costume. 5. Completing classic mode will unlock infinite ammo.
And....just finished the classic mode run thanks to you man! The bitch parts for me was the fire walk. Must've died at least 8-10 times trying to do it. Made a save before and after that damn encounter and then went smooth sailing from then on out. Praise to you sir!
Your guide helps a lot to get ready for what comes next. Still, naturally, we need some adaptations to our own style so we can be comfortable. I simply can't rush in these games sometimes (like that one when the Theodore part starts and you need to open the gate with the crank). I tried 4 times to do as you did but everything happened differently. So I had to play my style: with patience and stealth killing everyone. And it worked. The same for when Torres's part starts. Anyways, besides that, I achieved my goal and your guide helped a lot. Thank you!
Awesome guide! I saved before the firewalk and made it thru it on the 1st attempt, but then managed to choke on Laura lol. I failed the firewalk like 5 times after that
Just opened my first 3 lockers and had identical loot to you except 10 handgun ammo instead of 4 in first locker, which I couldn’t loot cos of full ammo xD thanks for this guide man I’m following it
