The one true joystick:

The reviewer was right, you know. Playing an FPS with a controller is the most horrifying thing in gaming history. (Except if it has gyro).
Stick a trackball in place of the right stick, and we have my dream FPS controller.
Mouse and Keyboard superiority!!!
Mouse and keyboard has never felt right for most games for me.
Ya. The controller people on their little boxes do not understand.
Like, I could plug a controller into my PC … but WHY?One day when you’re an adult, you’ll look back at the childish patronising insults you threw at millions of women, men and children, none of whom you know or have any right to judge, in order to feel a sense of smug superiority for a few moments on the Internet.
If adulthood hasn’t happened yet, it’s not likely. I broke enough Atari controllers to have paid my dues. Fixed em with superglue and tape. But, you know. I was twelve. Then I got older and purchased big boy toys.
You ought to consider shorter sentences. And drop some of the formalisms. That works better for today’s audiences.
This is not tiktok. People can handle longer sentences.
One would hope. Unfortunately, its not true.
But don’t get involved in two old people bitching at each other. No profit there, friend.
The transition period from the 90s to mid 2000s for control schemes was so fragmented. I remember a dozen games with wildly different control schemes. Wasn’t until the late 2000s when things started getting more standardized to what we know today.
Imagine if people kept having to port their games to Dreamcast with its single-stick controllers. We dodged a bullet when that console failed.
