Dragon Quest 11 Dracovian Mode

If you want a hard mode, they have something in Dragon Quest 11 called Dracovian mode. You can only do this when you start a new game and there's a list of restrictions that you can place on yourself. With those restrictions in place, at any point in time you can remove the restrictions, but you can't add them back. So if you want like a true playthrough on true hardcore mode where you've got everything on that turned on, that's gonna be some rough stuff.
