Plutone00 Posted December 29, 2013 Share Posted December 29, 2013 IMHO. It's more of a case people being stubborn and refusing to change their gaming habits. Once you've played nothing but console games for year, returnig to K&M is uncomfortable. Same thing if you've been a PC gamer all your life. That being said, some games like Alpha Protocol (which was not a port) are actually more comfortable with controller. Your fingers are quicker to react in certain situations, because of the button layout. But that's all there is to it. RTSs and CRPGs are just not meant for controllers. And it's coming from someone who actually tried to play Starcraft on real N64. You will able to manage CRPGs (due to pause-and-play), but controller will remain a handicap.

teknoman2 Posted December 29, 2013 Share Posted December 29, 2013 in the end it all depends on the game. dark souls is unplayable without a controller, because the port just sucks. Assassin's Creed or Castlevania can be played fine with M+K but are easier to handle with the controller. Starcraft, League of Legends, Dota, Baldur's Gate and so on just cant be played with a controller. some people simply refuse to realise this The words freedom and liberty, are diminishing the true meaning of the abstract concept they try to explain. The true nature of freedom is such, that the human mind is unable to comprehend it, so we make a cage and name it freedom in order to give a tangible meaning to what we dont understand, just as our ancestors made gods like Thor or Zeus to explain thunder. -Teknoman2- What? You thought it was a quote from some well known wise guy from the past? Stupidity leads to willful ignorance - willful ignorance leads to hope - hope leads to sex - and that is how a new generation of fools is born! We are hardcore role players... When we go to bed with a girl, we roll a D20 to see if we hit the target and a D6 to see how much penetration damage we did. Modern democracy is: the sheep voting for which dog will be the shepherd's right hand. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sb5 Posted December 30, 2013 Share Posted December 30, 2013 (edited) I don't understand why people are so hostile towards programs that do exactly what they want but insist on wasting dev money Edited December 30, 2013 by sb5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hassat Hunter Posted December 30, 2013 Share Posted December 30, 2013 Probably since it's horrible playing as such. Which... you know, it is. Which is why the game isn't designed for gamepad's, and doing so would harm the depth and UI build. But, they still want it. Since they also fail to see how it will harm the game in the process of making it game-pad friendly. 1 ^ I agree that that is such a stupid idiotic pathetic garbage hateful retarded scumbag evil satanic nazi like term ever created. At least top 5.

Since they also fail to see how it will harm the game in the process of making it game-pad friendly. Exactly what i thought. I don't understand why people can't realize that a cRPG is awfull to play with a controller. That's just so obvious... And there are wireless Keyboards and mouses. PoE with a controller may be as awful as Skyrim with Keyboard + mouse. It's either the game is drawn because of compatibility with controllers (because it's designed for K&M >>> party managment, RTwP, etc...), either the playability with a controller will just be awfull. They did not play any bad ported games. No need to even speak about the time (and thus money) needed to perform this bad port... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PrimeJunta Posted January 5, 2014 Share Posted January 5, 2014 Maybe we can finally put this to rest. JES around 26:35: "Don't even think of putting a controller with it." 2 I have a project. It's a tabletop RPG. It's free. It's a work in progress. Find it here: www.brikoleur.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
