Say, i am itching to try it. But i have to ask beforehand... Is it like the insane difficulty in old 2? If you die once, it's all over? Of course, i am going to try it in new game + only, when i am going to have some good items already and adequate build, but i must know for certain... Dying on a timed riddle or randomly because of keyboard controls not as accurate as gamepad 's, is the easiest thing in this game.

***Update***

Thankfully, unlike old 2, dying on the highest difficulty setting does not put a permanent end to your adventure!
