Playing this for the first time and I cant fucking progress

Out of ink ribbons so I cant save, no ammo, zombies everywhere still. Feels like Im borderline softlocked
Not a complaint btw, I actually like how brutal it feels

Start over if you're really stuck. Although you can definitely finsh the game if you really, really want to.
The game was probably partially intended to be played over if you didn't make it the first time.
You'll also be surprised at how quickly you'll get back to where you left off, once you know the layout and roughly where the items are, you can really run through quickly.
Where are you up to so far? Also as a small tip, try to search drawers etc for ammunition, you'll often find extra handgun or shotgun ammo lying around. There's more than you might initially think.
Secondly, don't attempt to kill every zombie if you can avoid them easily. If it's a hallway you think you'll be using a lot, then clear them out. If you can circumvent the hallway by going a different route, sometimes it's worth ignoring them and saving the ammo.

How far are you and how the hell do you run out of save ribbons? Start your first playthrough as Jill standard. Chris has less inventory spaces and no lockpick. You don't need to kill all the zombies, just those in areas you are frequently traveling. For the hunters, a single bazooka shot will kill them.

Start over, get some key items fast, run past zombies except in super tight hallways. Youre gonna feel like your constantly low on ammo for a while. You need the broken shotgun first if you want to get the shotgun later... good luck.

no,i played the game killing every zombie and did just fine,the ammo conservation meme is just that,a meme.

Going to give you a bit of advice anon; the knife is almost as powerful as the handgun. Learn it, love it. The zombies (and enemies in general) are nowhere near as durable as you think they are.

>> No.9297367

>>9297362
If you're playing for the first time ever it doesn't feel that way, because you miss ammo pickups, or will waste it by missing shots.

Terrible advice. Put the knife in storage asap. It does pisspoor damage, wastes space, and you are very likely to get hit just to get some chip damage in.

>>9297314
You might as well if you're out of ribbons and don't mind retreading some progress that you've already made. You'll likely be able to get at least as far as you did initially with fewer ribbons spent and more ammo.
It's not a very long game at all; you'll probably be surprised by just how quickly you'll be able to catch back up to where you were. If you didn't already pick Jill to begin with, I'd suggest you do that this time.

I played this for the first time two years ago, I had no issues. Why have you been saving so much, and why haven't you killed the zombies that you can't dodge? The ones you can dodge are a non-issue

>> No.9297673

>>9297406
Learn to use it, you can cut the zombies, run away, cut them again, etc. It saves ammo.

How did you run out of ink ribbons? Even as a shitty 11 year old I never ran out. My fucking boomer mom beat it back in the 90s without issue. How are you this bad?

You can one-shot zombies with the shotgun by pointing it upwards when you're in their proximity.

He is larping. You can't kill everything with firearms because there's not enough ammo for it. To do that you will need to use knife a lot against zombies and cerberus and pray that Chris is landing a shitton of critical headshots.

> Play and beat the PS1 version forever ago
> Give the Saturn port a try recently
> Play as Chris
> Get stuck when going back to the mansion after defeating the giant plant (yes I made V-JOLT)
> Am pretty much out of ammo so I get my shit rocked by the Hunters that are now in the mansion
> Feel like a shitter
> Wonder why I am such a shitter
> I wasn't born a shitter, so it stands to reason that I must have become a shitter sometime over the last couple of decades
> Suddenly remember that the PS1 Director's Cut version has fucking auto-aim for all of the weapons and the original Saturn port doesn't, so you waste a shitload of ammo trying to shoot at zombies thanks to the camera angles
> Feel slightly better

I'm gonna give it another shot since it's spooky game month.
