How hard is it to understand that the mouse is part of the movement? That's why it keeps being brought up. Removing the mouse automatically leaves you with 4 directoins to move with and that'd be like using the D-pad on the controllers and no aiming stick at all. I don't see how it's on PAR with analog sticks when it's utterly pointless to be walking at any speed between the max and 0. I fully agree, there is nothing that the WASD can do better than the dpad or analog, but there is absolutely nothing that can match the WASD when you add a mouse to the combination. The bold statement is astoundingly at odds with itself. How do I lose control if I have more control than before? |
I'm going to answer what I think was meant from Grey Acumen. He doesn't mean don't consider the mouse like it's not important to movement. He means take it out of the equation to see if there's a better solution to moving than WASD or the arrow keys. If we were to insert a button like configuration in the cross formation of a D-Pad, with the equivalent functionality of keyboard keys and it was placed in a way where the thumb could do the moving instead of three fingers, all while the mouse controls it's own portion of the movement as usual, do you think that would be an improvement or not?
