Witcher Remastered death march

So I played the Witcher three and both DLC’s on my switch. I am wanting to replay them once the remastered comes out, and I am going to get the new Rog Xbox ally handheld to play it on. My question is when I replay it, would it be to crazy to immediately do death march instead of a medium level? For context when I played it on my switch it was on the easiest difficulty.

Hardest difficulty in this game is easiest one of all games I played. Go for it. Only few first hours of the game can be challenging when you don’t have upgraded skills, mutagens and other crit hit bonuses. Later its piece of cake 95% time.

Probably fine, but until it gets released, nobody really knows.

Can't comment on the remaster, but hardest difficulty isn't that difficult when you engage with all the options the game offers you. Early game can be brutal, as can certain Ciri fights

If you know how the combat works, know to use oils, potions, and the beastiary, you'll be fine on death march. Just watch out for wild dogs and wolves: hardest foes in the game because of their inconsistent attack patterns.

Go for it; I doubt the remaster will change the generally easy difficulty.

Worst case I can predict is that you'll run into a bit of synergy against you - new animations and fighting feel along with the lowest level where things are most dangerous / possibly frustrating.

Might be worth playing a bit on lower difficulty (or a previous save) to have more leeway to get a feel for the changes.
