It was kinda fun, but as others have said having to press return everytime was a bit tedious, and while I was scanning the map to look for Karatoises, killing weak ones and avoiding dangerous ones, I realized I'd have to do it again because I didn't note the coordinates of the ones I was avoiding on a piece of paper (or in a text editor).
