For people who like the RPG-esque vanilla version where you can shoot a raider in the face but he doesn't die because fuck you he's just better than you, they'll still have the regular mode. But us masochists will finally have the extreme stealth challenge we've been waiting for. Especially if they make it so that you can only save in certain places, so reloading every five seconds isn't an option (however, they'd have to fix the freezing issues before they could expect us to play a mode where we can't save all the time).
