Don't have to rebuild the entire game for that, the fan community did it by wrapping it in a special emulator.

There was a time in my life where the y key on my laptop didn't work and rather than get it fixed I would just copy and paste a y from somewhere every time I need to type a y

Haha been there except it was just a keyboard I spilled water on and couldn't afford to replace for a bit.

i've been trying to figure out if the mouse thing is an actual joystick implementation or just mouse acceleration, it's so bizarre. probably should be playing it with a controller but i'm a goddamn stubborn rear end in a top hat who's used to mouse flicks for camera movement from 12-ish years of playing league,

I'm viable ladies.

Also I've played with kb+m for almost two decades At this point and I can't understand how people use controllers to play character action games.

It's probably just cause kbm is so deeply ingrained at this point but I have to actively think about what a bumper vs trigger button is and constantly gently caress it up that I really only use controller.for a handful of games. And usually then because the game dev was either lazy or insane and has clearly never used a kbm in their life so the keybinds are hot garbage.

I haven't seen a proper translation of matsuda's comments yet, but it seems like he'd been planning to move on at the 10-year mark and still talks up web3 as a continuing company interest.

But also I see people saying that web3/NFT is pure buzzword internationally even moreso than here, so frankly I don't really care until something actually happens if ever.

yeah, this guy’s web3 involvement seems like more a consequence of having a massive portfolio than anything ideological

wonder how much of this is due to SE selling off their western studios for a song

Wo Long doesn't feel too character actiony to me, more like an RPG with parries. Fun though!

Lol it's not casting bones OP, it's using a joystick. You learn after repeated use, simple as that.

If your game starts asking you to RT and mash that subscribe button, run.

The real hard mode is something like playing PC games using a PS4 controller, except all the button prompts in PC games are for Xbox buttons. Meanwhile your other system is a Switch which calls all the face buttons the same thing as the Xbox controller except every one of them is in a different place. What sort of idiot would play games like that
