How to unlock the Universe's Best Dad achievement in Resident Evil Village - Definitive Guide
This is my first guide on here so i apologize on how messy it is. i'll try to fix it.
with the right preparation its a lot more doable then people think, whether you use infinite ammo or not (i recommend it though)
firstly run the game a few times to get fluent with the map, enemy positions and just generally on how to deal with certain enemies. and save up on herbs and chemicals.
secondly, make sure to do it on new game+. all your weapons and gear will carry over from the start. highly recommend you max out the S.T.A.K.E magnum and get infinite ammo for it, it has the largest clip out of the magnums (28) and deals enough damage to 1 shot base enemies and 3-4 shot the harder enemies like the heavy soldats later in the game.
also make sure you complete every recipe beforehand as you'll need the health and speed boost. (even the guarding boost becomes really useful during the Heisenberg boss fight).
As for the difficulty level itself, its not to bad. its adds some more enemy spawns in here or there (you can still 1 shot most of them with the magnum) and gives the boss's a couple more moves to use against you. saving where you can and ignoring unnecessary fights and areas (eg. the treasure boss's) will make this a lot easier and quicker for you. all the steps in the game are still the exact same, enemies just have more health and will 2-3 shot you (with health upgrades).
Castle:
only real difference is increased spawns of the vampires (Moroaica) and the underground section where dimitrescu cuts off your hand, some vampires also spawn in. just run this section the same as you usually would. the daughters still go down easy.
Dimitrescu:
very straight forward fight, just move around the ring putting rounds into her avoiding her charges. she'll have a new move which is an insect cloud like her daughters.
Beneviento house:
no enemies spawn here and is no different at all, so no increased difficulty.
you don't have to bother inspecting the entire Mia doll, just grab the key from the shoulder and the music winder from the knee. no need to get the ring or wash it, just unlock the door and turn around and put in the door code (052911). the 2 picture discs are the crow facing right and the 3 eyes closed.
As for the film order:
Bear
Book
Rose
Music Box
Ring
Moreau section:
As no enemies spawn here after you meet chris for the first time so its the exact same with no added difficulty. Moreau will tank a lot more shots in the boss fight buts its very manageable. just avoid his acid rain by taking cover.
Stronghold:
this is where it starts to get harder as a more enemies come at once to overwhelm you and the lycans dodge a lot more now. base lycans are still one shot (with maxed STALK magnum). shoot what's in front of you and just run through this section until you reach Urias. the 28 mag on the magnum helps a lot with dealing with large amounts of enemies here. overall not really to much difference here, some more armored lycans spawn in but that's about it. flashbangs can help manage large groups.
Factory:
the Factory is probably the most changed area on this difficulty. a lot more heavy armored soldats spawn in from the start. the magnum will tear their armor off quickly, its then a matter off landing your shots and dodging their charges. Sturm (Fan head) will move a lot more and will leave his back exposed a lot shorter now.
Heisenberg boss fight:
now this was the biggest bitch of the entire game. keep moving and stay behind cover while constantly using your machine gun to destroy his weak parts (orange glowing areas). use your rocket to to push him back and create space when he charges you. he's more aggressive and will charge you more now, he also will now create a giant arm which has a lot more reach if you don't interrupt him. if he gets close and you don't have your rocket ready remember to keep moving to the side and to guard (get your recipes for the guard boost).
overall this boss fight is frustrating and it'll take a solid 5-6 minutes to wear him down. good luck.
Chris's section:
the health boosts are very helpful here. now that lycans dodge a lot more and take a lot more shots you want to keep your distance and move steadily forward clearing each section. make sure you pick up all the ammo and medicine you get at each green flare (3 total). when you get to the wheat field it will spawn in 2 big lycans (varcaloc), you can run straight past them. once you get over the little ledge they will stop following you.
fight your way up the laneway using grenades to clear the larger batches where necessary (leave some for later) until you reach the Megacylte barrier. after you tag it once with the laser you'll have to do so 2 more times. going through the gate to the left (ammo is also there) helps manage the lycans coming until the laser is useable again. after the 2nd laser, heavy lycans will spawn in so use your grenades when they jump down to thin them out and go back into the gate area to hold them off (going up to the roof helps). using flashbangs to create time and space helps a lot.
After you blow the wall you'll drop into another Urias fight. hopefully you have 2 medicine for this. he'll start on the ledge and jump down with a swing. dodge this by moving to the side right as he leaps. moving too early will result in him still hitting you. he'll swing a lot more at you so make sure to dodge. running forward into him when he starts to swing can help go through his animation safely. after hitting him with 4 lasers and spraying him in the back whenever you get the chance should finish him.
Miranda:
before entering this bossfight stock up on any medicine you can from the duke. this fight is largely learning her attack patterns. most of which can be dodged by simply moving to the side.
she might shoot 2 rows of megacylte at you, move to the right and then move to the left to dodge both,
if she enters her spider form it can be hard to keep track of her, dish out damage with the magnum to force her into her bird from.
in her bird form she'll quickly swoop you, can be dodged by moving to the side.
she'll also charge 3 fireballs while in the air, shooting each ball will avoid this.
after enough damage everything will turn black. move closer to the edge of the ring so she spawns in front of you. she'll simply charge you which is easily dodged by once again moving to the sides. after 3 charges and putting round into her when she miss will go back to normal.
after the dark phase, if you see the megacylte rise out of the ground (2 columns) get behind one immediately. Miranda will be in the middle and will rain fire down. if you don't get behind in time you'll take constant damage and won't be able top heal yourself and DIE. get behind the column.
once it cuts to her grabbing your leg thats the end of the the hard stuff, just keeping putting bullets in her head when she picks you up and you've finally finished the village of shadows difficulty. congratulations.
overall using infinite ammo it took me 2:30 hours to complete it. its just a matter of knowing the map.

The Spooky Village difficulty level will be unlocked after completing the game for the first time, along with the Mercenaries mode.
Easily done with endless ammo enabled. Since the preservation of the conditions is general, you can pump up all the weapons and reload the safe, but the condition in the bonuses mode will remain.
I calmly completed the game with a WCX machine gun and a revolver.

I’ll also add that the difficulty can be opened immediately if you pre-ordered it

The first time we pass on normal for our own pleasure. The second time is a speedrun in 2 hours according to the video guide, the third time with a powerful knife is also in two hours, and for the fourth time we take a revolver, pump it up as much as possible (you will have enough lei for this) and go ahead) I’m still that kind of player, but There were only two difficulties during the entire passage. 1) Heisenberg...It’s clear that you need to shoot at the red dots, but on a gamepad this is another thing) Move backwards shooting at the red dots with a machine gun, and use the cannon only before he strikes in order to throw him back and stun him. My mistake was that I used the gun immediately after reloading. The second moment was with the final boss... But it turned out to be quite simple) We pump up the maximum block and health from the Duke for food... And now you don’t need to run from her attacks, just put a block and after she attacks, hit her with a revolver, I can say I stood in one place all the time) when the light goes out, it just runs in a circle without stopping, then everything is the same... it takes from 2 to 4 first aid kits for a boss with such tactics.

The easiest way to go is on NG+ with endless ammo for the revolver and grenade launcher. They can be obtained by pumping your weapon to the maximum during the first or subsequent playthroughs and then purchasing a bonus in the bonus store. It is advisable to prepare all the dishes at the Duke's. The mode is like hardcore + enemies have also been added to places where they were not there before.
