Atomfall: A Guide to All Playstyles

*Atomfall* is a unique RPG that empowers you to tailor your gaming experience to your preferences. Right from the start, you're given the freedom to choose your playstyle from a variety of options. If you're unsure which to select, this guide will help you understand each playstyle in detail.

All Playstyles in Atomfall and How They Work

*Atomfall* prides itself on offering players the utmost freedom in how they experience its story. When you begin a new save, you'll encounter five different predetermined playstyle modes, each designed to cater to different player preferences:

• Sightseer – Ideal for those who want to immerse themselves in the story without the pressure of intense combat or survival challenges. Exploration, Survival, and Combat are all set to 'Assisted' difficulty.
• Investigator – Perfect for players who enjoy exploring independently without hints or HUD assistance, while keeping combat manageable. Exploration is set to 'Challenging' difficulty, Survival to 'Casual', and Combat to 'Assisted'.
• Brawler – Tailored for those who relish combat and are up for a challenge. Combat is set to 'Challenging' difficulty, while Survival is 'Casual' and Exploration is 'Assisted'.
• Survivor – Recommended by the developers, this mode offers a balanced challenge across all aspects. Combat, Survival, and Exploration are all set to 'Challenging' difficulty.
• Veteran – The most demanding mode, designed for players who want to test their skills to the limit. Combat, Survival, and Exploration are all set to 'Intense' difficulty.

Choosing the right playstyle initially can be challenging, but *Atomfall* allows you to switch without any penalties. To change your playstyle, pause the game, navigate to 'Options', and under the 'Game' tab, select 'Playstyle'. You can then adjust the difficulty of Combat, Survival, and Exploration to align with one of the other playstyles. For even more detailed customization, head to 'Advanced Options' to fine-tune multiple aspects of each category.

Which Atomfall Playstyle Should You Start With?

*Atomfall* is crafted to provide a balanced experience, allowing you to decide what aspects of the game you want to be challenged by. If you're choosing from the five default playstyles, starting with either **Investigator** or **Brawler** could be beneficial. These options will help you gauge your comfort with the game's combat and exploration mechanics, allowing you to adjust your experience as needed.

However, the most flexible option is the customized playstyle, where you can tailor every element of the gameplay to suit your personal style. From enemy behavior to exploration and bartering, you have complete control over your gaming experience.

It's worth noting that there are no achievements or trophies tied to completing the game on specific difficulties, so feel free to change your playstyle as often as you like without any repercussions.
