I'm a filthy console peasant and I hate the fact that in most fps games the melee button is tied to the right stick.

Slack jawed retard half life is my first FPS babby detected. Using up THREE modifier keys for inputs that don't need it is obscenely stupid. I'm sure you use hold instead of toggle for those inputs as well? Needlessly holding down a key when that finger could be used for other things during that time is idiotic. "But I'm too stupid to tell if I'm crouching or not lol" just proves my point even further. Honestly half life is easily in the top 5 worst things to ever happen to the FPS genre.

There are way better ways to map leaning. Right mouse + alt + W/A/S/D is the best way - period. MoH Warfigher despite being a shit game it has the best and least clunky leaning function in any video game ever and more games need to fucking use it. Just aim your gun and press Alt. Now you can lean at any direction you want nice and smoothly without having to somehow press A and Q at the same time or D and E like some kind of retard

No wonder you have such a tough time keeping track of whether or not you are toggle crouched.
You also whined like a bitch about toggle keys yet toggle lean fixes the QA/ED problem you also whined about. Holding down a key restricts your fingers from doing other things, this doesn't matter in braindead retard simple CoD garbage so it's no wonder you prefer holding down buttons despite not needing to. Also:
>Right mouse + alt + W/A/S/D
Now you can't move while leaning, which is retarded unless it's a toggle setting which exposes you as a hypocrite. Also having to zoom in with your gun to lean is awkward as hell. No other games used this system for a reason and that is because it is fucking retarded.

>>14897863
>side mouse button crouch
I actually tried that once and it always threw off my aim a little bit. I had to make my thumb float for a moment to reach for the side button, which made it hard to move the mouse side to side at the same time. And pushing the button made the mouse move slightly, like pushing the shutter button on camera makes the image a little blurry if you don't have a timed shutter.
My setup:
EDSF movement
left ctrl crouch
spacebar jump
R reload
Q flashlight
W special power like cloak or w/e the game has
G next weapon
A prev weapon
H change grenades
V prone
X special power 2, if the game has one
T lean left
Z lean right
left mouse button fire
right mouse button zoom/aim-down sight
middle mouse button throw grenade
side mouse button 1 change ammo
side mouse button 2 melee
shift sprint
caps lock toggle sprint/walk
tab use/interact
F1 scoreboard (multi) / objectives (campaign)
The Z and T lean keys were not a typo. If you map them that way you can still circle-strafe around a corner while leaning in the same direction. Favorite part about the setup though is that basically all keyboards have a little raised notch on the F key, that way you know your hand is on the right keys even in a totally dark room. Finding home row by touch alone isn't just for typing.
I used to bind a key next to the movement keys to jump, like "W", but that's no good especially in arena shooters where you need to jump and not take a finger off a movement key.
I will never understand how people switch weapons by mousewheelup or mousewheeldown. My scroll wheel is shit and doesn't register wheel movement like 1 out of 8 times up or down. Maybe that's my problem.
But the most annoying thing ever is when a game doesn't let me bind certain keys to certain actions. Wtf, why?

I have but the rise of obvious autismo achievements are designed in a way that gives autists the feeling that they did something worthwhile while everybody else accepts that, maybe, you don't need to level all 28 characters in your party to level 999 to feel satisfied and have fun.
>>14899304
>achievements are just a cop-out for unlocking things within the game which is more fun and gives more incentive to replay the game
there are games that can and do have achievements along with in-game unlockables.
There is also an obvious difference between
<Congratulations! You beat this boss while avoiding a specific pitfall, here's some extra shit and an an achievement so everybody knows you're cool too!
and
<Wow! You used your tremendous autism powers to trivialize the game by leveling to the cap after 350 hours of grinding in the starting zone, here's your scout badge!

that's ideal but more often than not you just get a cheevo and all it did was pad out the gameplay. I feel like the fact every game has to have achievements leads to developers just slapping something in to get in the quota past the "beat chapter [x]" and "beat game on hard mode" ones

That's how RPGs are kinda supposed to be, it's only baffling in ones that combine gameplay elements of other genres, like in Fallout 3 where you can spray an assault rifle right in someone's face and the bullets will still go around if your gun skills are too low (well that and the fact that the shooting is atrocious in general, which is why I believe they included VATS - to pretend to be a homage to the originals' turn based combat while including the only reliable way to kill opponents due to nonresponsive realtime shooting)

Jesus fucking Christ this makes me so fucking angry. Almost every game I have except for the Souls games do this. Some of them even only let you turn the HUD off or on, not even any customization. This is common fucking sense UI design, especially if you’re jacking your whole dick over how great your game looks for screenshot bait.

You misunderstand, that's not how these work. In Dishonored, there's multiple scenarios where an objective is given with no direction whatsoever because the devs assumed you would have map markers. In LL, it's quite literally impossible to know how much ammo you have on your character because the HUD elements that show that have no replacement if you turn them off. This is all based off of these games on release, later remasters/patches may have fixed this

Metro 2033 was the worst with this. You had secondaries like thrown explosives and throwing knives. Normally you'd be shown visually which you had selected but because the HUD was hidden, you wouldn't know which you had selected so you could end up throwing an explosive when you're trying to sneak. Remaster still had the same problem. And yet, you could still hear the sounds of an option being selected.

You know what else is great? When I beat a game and as I'm trying to watch the ending cutscene, the thing that brings the whole story to it's close, resolves the conflict of the characters and ideally leaves a real impression on me, this happens:

Don't forget QTE's with no indication of when or what you're supposed to be pressing. While I think it was always the default interaction key, most of the time the cutscenes had events occurring that logically seemed to require the melee key to be used.

While in some guns you could see how much was remaining in your clip/magazine, you could not tell how much you were carrying otherwise. If you had a full mag in your gun, there was no way to know if your had 1 or 100 rounds in reserve.
>>14902366
Not on Ranger difficulty. To the best of my knowledge, the only way to check ammo is to visit a merchant.
>>14902421
Let me try and explain the difference:
<King Kong on hard difficulty
>ammo is scarce and valuable
>you have no visible indicator of how much ammo you have left on your person
>pressing a key will have your character check his ammo and give a brief voice line indicating this
>"half a mag on backup"
>"only two rounds on backup"
>"I'm out"
<Metro: Last Light on Ranger difficulty
>ammo is scarce and valuable
>you have no visible indicator of how much ammo you have left on your person
>that's it, go fuck yourself
There's a difference between removing HUD elements that would give the player an advantage or reduce immersion, and removing basic functionally. As I said, it's obvious that LL was designed around the assumption that these HUD elements would be present, whereas King Kong wasn't.

Strange, I played through the game about twice total and I don't have any recollection of the journal bringing up ammo on hardcore. Still, I find it unlikely that two people would claim the exact same thing, so perhaps I'm in the wrong.
Actually, I've done some searching. According to the game's wiki page the entirety of the HUD is unavailable to the player on Ranger difficulties. I was, however, able to find a screenshot from a Steam guide that shows the journal showing ammo, but it seems to be from the Redux. Is it possible that with Redux changed this?

In that situation: nothing. It's unenforceable, but that doesn't matter, because that's not their goal. Their goal is conditioning. Console users are being trained to blindly accept ToS whenever they play a new game, so putting them everywhere (even when it makes no sense) is intended to make it seem familiar and "normal" to them. PC users are used to getting a EULA shoved in their face whenever they install something, but console users are were more accustomed to just putting the game in and playing it. Normalfags will just eat it up, because they're afraid of the social costs of taking a stand. When their choices are "accept the ToS, goyim", or "wtf dude why aren't you playing the new game", they'll give in every time. You could tell them that the sky is green and they'd go along with it, so long as all their friends were saying it too.

Really most of the catch up just needs to happen with the actual ownership rights of digital goods. The fact that corporations are trying to hold onto terms like "licensed" so hard seems to be the weak spot to hit.
Require that a "licensed" good has the terms of the license in common consumer language and suddenly people might not be so keen to buy a $20 digital movie that they have the "access" to stream and might go buy a physical copy.
which tends to include a digital access code anyway, also showcasing how worthless they consider digital products themselves.

Original 2033 shows how much ammo you have in total with the map thing on both ranger difficulty
LL doesn't at all on Ranger Hardcore except in shops
Redux goes back to how 2033 handled it.

Blame your natural retardation because you've just proved you don't know shit.
WASD was single-handedly popularized by Quake players, outright abandoning the default key settings. Just because you "came up with" your own applied autism, doesn't mean it was norm.
You fucking idiot.

Doom has exactly this, as the player's head is locked to the x-axis.

Glad to know I wasn't going insane. Still, I'm baffled how that got by playtesting.

It shows all over in Bethesda's games that they've just been reusing Morrowind's engine and gameplay functionality over and over again without ever stopping to go back and re-evaluate or re-engineer any of it, despite what they're trying to do with the Morrowind engine and gameplay mechanics changing radically from what they were trying to do when they were first making Morrowind. They don't ever stop and think about how horribly their NPC behaviour works for Oblivion, Skyrim, Fallout 4, etc, because they presumably haven't even actually looked at it since they first programmed it for Morrowind.

It also helps that it shows in the final games that there's no inter-departmental co-operation going on in Bethesda whatsoever. Like how there are no working ladders in any of their games presumably since implementing ladders would require the programmers and the animators to actually work together, and how chain-link fences block bullets presumably since there was no one around to explain to the guy who modeled the chain-link fences that the type of collision mesh he used for them was one that blocks bullets, the horrible NPC behaviour in their games could also be (partly) explained by the quest designers who actually assign different behaviours to different NPCs having had no contact with the programmers who designed the game's NPC behaviour and actually know how it works (and how it doesn't) whatsoever.

Don't forget "You only see the EULA after your purchase" which basically renders the entire thing invalid, at least in EU.

The US had invalidated "shrink-wrap licensing" at one point but I think US corps got around that by including "Terms and Condtions available externally <here>" as a loophole.
I notice the EU is decently ahead of the US in digital consumer protections by literally just applying similar standards as physical goods along with context specific shit.
This is one of the few times I see common law as useful. Shame the US only uses it to shove corporate fuckery out of court for the thousandth time.

It's even more retarded when it's not entirely obvious you're supposed to lose the fight to continue the story and the game just let's you waste 10-15 minutes on what is essentially
>but he was actually stronger than his stats implied and winning the fight did nothing
I'd like to see a game actually account for players who are able to kill bosses at first encounter.
