  • You’re correct. In addition you could strafe using left/right C buttons, and you could look up/down using up/down C buttons, but that was awkward and not really designed to aim.

    But we also must remember that those games had an auto lock system. Your character would actually target the ennemies by himself, you would only use the crosshair to dona headshot when you have time to aim, or to aim at a specific object in the game.

    But yeah, that seems so clunky compared to what we have today






  • You said it yourself: you had spent a lot of time learning the patterns, but had grown frustrated by that time. Basically you’d have two choices

    • what you did, and finish the fight easily using summons (which is easy only because you already spent a lot of time learning the boss)
    • decide to do it without summon, and maybe have the satisfaction to win without help, or submit yourself to too much frustration, rendering the victory meaningless because at the end it had become a chore, and not fun at all.

    At the end of the day, the most important element is to have fun. But even with summons, victory is never underserved, those games are still brutal.








  • Concerning your edit, not sure about other countries, but I can speak about the process in France.

    We get (normally) ballots with the programs in the mail before the elections, so we can also bring ballots from there. Then the way it works when voting is

    • there’s a table with ballots from all lists that provided them (so missing the ones we’re talking about here) and you can take any number of them
    • then you go isolate in a cabin where you put the ballot you want, or nothing, inside an envelope
    • finally your identity is verified, your vote is counted and you put your envelope in a transparent box

    So there’s not really a way to definitely know you’re voting for an unlisted candidate here.
