Permadeath is a video series from Waypoint in which we attempt to beat a game with a limited number of lives, even in games that don’t traditionally have “lives.”

In our first Permadeath game, I’m trying to get as far as I can into The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild before I die three times. And every week I survive, I have to face a new difficult modifier.

Somehow, I’ve made it through six weeks. Now, in my seventh, I’m entering my first dungeon… and I’m down to my last life.

So far, you’ve all voted to:

1. Remove my ability to fast-travel away to save my life from danger.
2. Prevent me from accessing the weapon menu until the current weapon breaks or is thrown away.
3. Forbid me from using both the main map and the mini-map
4. Require that monster I fight be in the compendium before I kill them.
5. Prevented me from using spears and javelins as melee weapons.

Now there’s a new set of possible difficulty modifiers. Vote below (or click here) to decide what challenge I’ll face this week!
