In addition to the IDDQD cheat, if you type IDKFA (Doom's "give everything" code) the game will take all your weapons off you, leaving you with just the useless stick to fight with and giving the message "Cheater!

    Nice surprise to see Jane filling in for Luke. Ellen's description of the chicken had me pausing the vid just so I could laugh not miss the rest of the vid. I mean, that is what it looks like for sure. I'm kind of glad I didn't really get into gaming until after cheat codes stopped really being a thing. I feel sure I'd have ruined many a game by just plugging in whatever I found to see what would happen. Or I wouldn't have touched them since I don't even mess with mods on the few PC games I still play.

    Hardest: Which locks the game into an otherwise toggle-able hard mode.
    FrameOne: Which makes your guard worthless unless you time a Perfect Guard (with a very small timing window)
    Ruigee: Which caps you at Level 1, though letting you equip more Medals (Basically Badges from the Paper Mario series)
    And MoreFarm: Which makes enemies drop less XP and Currency.
    It is an insanely brutal code that the developers actually had to tweak because the first boss was literally impossible under these conditions. (and having started a Tuffbugs playthrough, it is still nearly impossible without good luck, timing, and strategy.)
