Ha, your example fails in regard of my comment, have you played megaman 2? It's hard, you die and go back to the beginning,
I have no problem with that, because? it's a game, this is a visual novel, to kill Mallenia in Elden Ring took me 34 tries, the other hardest one was orphan in Bloodborne with 12 tries, but even the devs there acknowledge that because it's hard they load your game for you, if you were sent to the main menu every time that would be annoying, like I said games have change, VN not. You keep saying handholding or not having the necessary skills, dude, it's a load menu, I guess you must hate people that use uber, "those lazy bastards, Bus ride is where is at"
