The reason I think we need a "Hardcore Mode" is because sometimes you get RNG to the Nine Hells and it feels bad but, it allows for actual consequences in the game. Yes a person of Willpower could decide I'm not going to reload my saves no matter what but, that can be really hard to do sometimes and, tempted to try it again. Also their is a streaming experience, sharing your game with other people and having to accept bad results if they happen.
Someone asked how can you enforce this? Plenty of games today don't allow you to create hard saves. Minecraft and Darkest Dungeon come to mind. The game is constantly updating your progress and when you exit the game your progress is hard saved for you.
Also, this should be an optional mode, perhaps with some additional rewards throughout the campaign.
