Can You Beat RE4Rs Berserker+ Mod With Only The Bolt Thrower?

So, a little backstory. Resident Evil 4 was released in 2005-- nah, I'm kidding, let's get to the real backstory.

ZERO (aka ZEROistaken) is a challenge gamer mainly specializing in Resident Evil games, but also has branched out to Call of Duty before. His challenges are, quite frankly, absolutely ridiculous. Stuff like "can you beat RE2R with both characters AT THE SAME TIME" and "can you get the maximum possible rating in [insert game here] without running". This on top of the standard "beat the game with X limitation". Knife only, grenade only, rocket launcher only (no infinite rockets here; this run is harder than you'd think), stuff like that.

RE4R is already a pretty difficult game, but if you need a little zest, the modding community has your back: RabbitTooneedIM's Berserker Mod. Quite frankly, it is absolutely absurd the things the modder did to up the difficulty. Oh, sure, there's the standard "add more enemies to the area", but there's also things like "adding new weapons to enemies", "hey, you know that spawn point for an enemy? Yeah, it's over there now", and my personal favorite of "adding new boss fights". RabbitTooneedIM would also release the Valkyrie Mod for Separate Ways, doing similar terrible things to the game. ZERO beat the Berserker Mod knife only, which is actually explicitly mentioned to be impossible without modding the knife to have infinite durability, because of the mechanics change to the House raid sequence. I just wanted to outline the level of insanity we are dealing with here.

But some psychopath decided that just wasn't hard enough.

Enter BerserkerPlus. This takes the Berserker Mod, says "that's cute", and proceeds to crank the difficulty even further off the charts. And ZERO -- mad lad that he is -- decided the best way to do his first playthrough of it was with what is widely regarded as the worst weapon in the game: The Bolt Thrower. And keep in mind, when he says "Bolt Thrower only", he means it: no knives, no grenades, no backup weapons, no nothing. He truly hates himself that much. Let me tell you, this is a WILD journey from end to end.

It looks good for the McLarens on paper: Piastri is 1st and Norris 3rd, with Verstappen down in 6th. But, knowing what McLaren have been like for the second half of this season... I feel like there's every chance they'll find a way to bottle it >_< .
