Based on what evidence? Have you seen an article on this, or gotten some hands-on time? Everything I've seen on the remake looks like big stupid fun. I'm not trying to be snarky here, I honestly don't get this statement. Got anything to back it up?

The old RoTT was the worst game.
:(
It has some shitty level design for sure.
I liked ROTT and I'll totally get this but it was a shitty game. I have forever missed the variety of wacky weapons that never seemed to happen in any other FPS since, like the wall of fire and drunk missiles that would leave little skeletons behind. But as I recall, the best part of ROTT was putting in all various codes to make weird stuff happen and try out all the weapons, and not so much actually playing through it.
I've been playing farcry with a pad too and i have no complaints. This isn't a twitchy shooter so it translates to pad play just fine, and my couch beats my computer chair for immersive games like this.
If the developer created the game around gamepad play, and the PC port has shitty mapping features they obviously spent no time on, then you play with the gamepad.
Seems like it's worked out for everyone else.
Good for everyone else? FPS with gamepad isn't fun. It's annoying. Do not want. No thanks. I get that Ubisoft got paid, so the person losing out is me, but it happens sometimes. I'm writing it off as a loss and walking away.

I go back and forth with Borderlands 2 between M+K and gamepad, sometimes there are just a grillion buttons (Loot/activate, Grenade, Special Skill, sprint, melee).
That's such a weird thing to say. I understand feeling incredibly limited trying to play Quake or UT with a gamepad, but those were clearly designed around the m+kb (or even trackball I guess?). So I take it you hated on GoldenEye, Perfect Dark, TimeSplitters, Halo, etc. back when they were released? What about modern first person games like even more Halo, Resistance, Skyrim, etc.? You're missing out on some good games because of your weird, arbitrary rule. I'd suggest revising it.Quote:

I put up with Goldeneye because of when it came out. I didn't have much of an opinion yet but it was one of the games that helped form it. As for the rest, if they aren't on PC I don't care. If I don't have the precision aiming granted by a mouse/trackball, it's not as fun. It's not a rule, it's a preference, and whenever I decide to give another shot to working around it I end up annoyed at the control scheme.
I don't mind the digital movement speed, by the way. Stealth/walk/run is fine by me.
