Just had a video from a random YT gamer pop up in my feed where he tried out the motorcycle chase on second highest difficulty.
He exited the pause menu, put the controller down and he didn't have to touch it until after the cut scene where Wolverine jumps off the bike onto the truck.
Bro died but he was far enough that he had passed a checkpoint so it just picked back up halfway through the chase.
I have it wishlisted but I won't buy it until it's $10
