You cannot farm these via checkpoint restart so it has to be done over the course of a playthrough. Also pick up enough batteries for “Them That Hath Ears” and heal yourself 10 times with bandages for “Heal the Sick”. To get to know the game you should start on normal difficulty and find all 105 collectibles (55 documents and 50 recordings). Step 1: Beat the game on normal difficulty, collect all Documents and Recordings

Insane mode is considerably harder than the first game because it is twice as long and has a lot more enemies. If you miss a collectible it can be obtained via chapter select at any time. For your first playthrough it’s advisable that you play on normal or nightmare difficulty and just find all the collectibles. If you die the game restarts from the beginning. Because of this you must know the game by heart and it will require a lot of practice and patience to beat insane mode.

Half the game is pitch-black so you won’t be able to see anything. There is an extra challenge: for the “Messiah” trophy you must beat insane without consuming any camera batteries. There are collectibles (documents, recordings) and you must beat the game on insane difficulty – which is a permandeath mode without checkpoints. If you played Outlast 1 you’ll find that the trophy list is just like that.
