I was using the analog to draw those signs and oooh boy it was a pain, glad there is a hack for that now, when I tried to search for a hack I couldn’t find one
SPOILER ALERT: Now i’m doing julius mode from dawn of sorrow and its different from the first game since its not super easy and julius is not overpowered, plus you can switch julius with yoko and alucard to help you defeat Soma if he becomes the dark lord doing the bad ending.
