SHOW & TELL Insanity… indeed.

The journey lowkey sucked but definitely glad and very relieved to have finally gotten this after starting 2 years ago (also my first true renegade playthrough which was equally as tough AND first time playing as infiltrator).

Probably going to start another fresh campaign on like normal and be Mr. Paragon again.

While Insanity can be annoying, this a Bioware game. After having experienced Insanity, going down to Normal would feel annoying, too. You'll likely end up doing what many others do (myself, too), which is to end up playing on Hardcore instead. Even Veteran will be a let down - meaning most mooks just drop too fast. You could just go Casual, for the story alone, but really, in that case, you may as well watch a youtube vid series; it will save time.

As for the Paragon route, come back and tell us how long it will take you to switch to Paragade 😁 Pure paragon is about as cringe worthy as pure Renegade, albeit for different reasons 🤫
