Beating Persona 3 Reload on the Merciless difficulty is, as the name would suggest, pretty bloody hard. So, it's no surprise that the game rewards you for blasting through on the hardest difficulty, giving you a unique item that other players would miss entirely.
As discovered by a player who just pulled off a Merciless run, beating the game like this grants you new dialogue with Elizabeth. Here, she gifts you a Blue Envelope, which reads a simple, yet mysterious message: “At the end of a great trial, the answer illuminates my path."
As highlighted in the replies, you can't switch to Merciless mode mid-playthrough, so you'll have to beat the entire game on this difficulty to get the item. You'll also need to boot up a New Game Plus run to view the item's message.
So, what does the message mean? In the thread, many believe that it's pointing towards DLC for Persona 3 Reload. The most likely candidate is The Answer DLC, a re-release of the epilogue that was included in Persona 3 FES, an expansion to the original Persona 3. A reliable Persona leaker has already said that The Answer will be released as DLC at some point in the future, so this discovery appears to confirm the rumour.
Unfortunately, this means we could be in for a long wait until we can an expansion that adds the female protagonist from Persona 3 Portable - if we ever get her as DLC at all. There's no guarantee that this will be the case, which is particularly frustrating when we got a Persona 3 Portable re-release last year that included her story.
In the meantime, fans are on the case. As we reported earlier this month, fans are getting together to add Kotone's playthrough into Persona 3 Reload. This was a pretty glaring omission at launch, especially since you'd think that a full remake would give players the most definitive way to experience the game. Hopefully, she's at least added as DLC further down the line, much like we're probably getting with The Answer.
Persona 3 Reload is out now, available on Xbox, PlayStation, and PC.

In , Fort Condor’s Hard Mode is optional — but that doesn't mean completing it will go unrewarded. Fort Condor is a recurring (if greatly expanded) mini-game from the original . It's a real-time strategy tower defense game in which a variety of units are placed on a two-laned battlefield. The end goal is to destroy the enemy's headquarters, or to run out the clock with more towers remaining.

Helldivers 2 has plenty of weapons and firepower at your disposal to help spread democracy, but just like with every online game these days, players have been attempting to create meta builds and streamline their loadouts to ensure they're doing as much damage as possible. It's not really in the spirit of the game, especially if you're chastising other players for using weapons that may not be optimal, but there's every chance the weapons you're not using are better than they appear on paper.
