are there any GB, GBC, GBA, or SNES games where the controls are like, you hold down L or R and press up, down, left, or right on the D-Pad to cast one of 4 or 8 skills or spells or something? could you even do that on those systems?
do you understand what I mean? like you know the controller support in Final Fantasy XIV and how it works, where I think you hold down a trigger button and then a cross hotbar appears and you can select to use one of 4 abilities from the cross hotbar while holding down the trigger button?
I'm just wondering why they never did that for any older games. because I think it would have really expanded the gameplay for a lot of games back then

Just beat code veronica. I beat the game had alot of fun. Some times it felt a little tedious going through doors. I never felt soft locked at.any time. I might have made more use of the ak in the second disc.

I didn't really understand that the rest of the game would be played as chris. I relegated the grenade launcher and shot gun to chris and claire kept the bow gun ak47 and her pistol but upgraded. So I only ever really used the ak in the nosferatu fight and on a few zombies. Woulda shot this alot more. Left behind the fire extinguisher which I guess locks you out of the magnum. As you can't pass the chemical weapons room to get it. Which is retarded to be honest there wasn't a second fire extinguisher in the game. They gave a second knife when claire is tied to the wall in the spencer mansion area. What ever. I had alot of fun regardless. Ten out ten would play again. Not right away. But I could probably blow through it in half the time now that I know what's going on. Would be cool if the game has smg mode or something like re2. I think I read it has a unlimited rocket launcher idk if I unlocked it.

Any ways I'm gonna play RE ZERO now. What am I in for bros?

I've gone from hating this game for years to thinking it's better than X2 and X4 recently. Its got the most obvious flaws of the first four, but it has good replay value and a fair challenge if you go for a no upgrades run. You can even do a playthrough where you only get the Z saber but no other upgrades if you want.

What's the best way to play this in Engrish? I haven't touched the series but I'd like to play it in full. I'm not a stranger to early JRPGs and have played through Dragon Quest 1-5. Is the grinding and difficulty really as bad as they say, or is it just Nintendo kids up to their usual tricks? I'm not anti QoL stuff as long as it isn't too intrusive. I can handle grinding but I don't get much joy from it either.

All I remember from the opinions about this game back in the day was endless praise about its story and setting and tons of controversy surrounding the hot coffee mod. But was there any criticism about tacked-on RPG mechanics or the endless gimmicky missions? I'm replaying it now, first time on console, and I'm shocked at how bad this game gets at points, and I love the other 3D-era entries.
