Why not just use standard controls. Problem solved.


Ignoring the millions of people who've shown the like motion controls IS the problem that too many developers have had. So acting like just dropping this is a solution just shows you are part of that problem.

I like good control schemes so I'm part of the problem? Interesting.


Ignoring those that like the immersion of motion controls is what I meant. Plus motion can be good.


I've yet to see motion control do a single genre better than any existing form of control. Not one.


As I've mentioned, this isn't something that developers are used to. So it just means so far it hasn't worked.

So don't dismiss the entire thing just because the results aren't up to the level of something established in gaming for decades.

How much longer do you think they will need? Another five years? Ten? Are we just supposed to accept that games will suck until developers catch up to a level of control that already exists with KB M or a gamepad?


Why don't think think it could happen sooner, especially with all three first parties now invested in their own motion tech?

Because the top developers aren't aboard with the controls.

No naughty dog

No insomniac

No bungie

No Kojima

No Polyphony

No respawn

No blizzard

No GSC

No valve

The list goes on. Motion controls won't evolve until good devs start to support it and that doesn't seem to be happening anytime soon.


You act like those are the only ones capable. Plus just because they are good with certain games does not mean they will be good with motion controls.

Plus buttons have been established since the beginning of gaming. You really think developers just learn buttons from scratch and are good at them anyway?

Finally, just because YOU think no control is better is NOT a counter to the millions who prefer motion controls. THAT is the dismissing I meant. You're trying to put your opinion (even if many other gamers agree) in a way to pretend the opinions of millions of other customers don't count.

The gaming industry isn't giving up motion controls just because a bunch of people like you don't like the tech.



A flashy-first game is awesome when it comes out. A great-first game is awesome forever.
