Í have nothing but good memories of goldeneye to be honest, but that might be the nostalgia talking.

The game controls fine out of the box giving options for both casual with the 1.0 control scheme and advanced players with the 2.0 control scheme. Playing with a mouse & keyboard makes the game about aiming, trivializing it as the AI has highly generous reaction time and always pre-fires warning shots which are signifiers to evade/hide, thus interrupting the flow of the game and hurting the way its intended to be played. Ultimately this mod makes a very unique first person shooter play like every other first person shooter around which is an absolute shame and a complete disservice to Rare's hard work and your own experience.

If you have trouble adjusting to games which play differently from every other game in the genre you are too young to post here.

Goldeneye 64 is the forefather of console FPS

It's excellent and everybody should play it

>forefather of console FPS

Imagine thinking that's a good thing.

Oh shit, I can play this without negative mouse acceleration now? Too bad I already suffered through it

>>15891644

It made the game on PC so much fucking better.

The same thing exists for Perfect Dark, and there's the PC ports of the Turok games, and the fan made PC port of Doom 64.

This is the truth. People who demand that all games in a genre control the same are shitters or children.

>>15891629

That is not the game I played, so I'm sorry Anon but I can't really condone you playing with keyboard + mouse. It's the same thing as Perfect Dark until you've played it properly you'll never understand what I went through.

I never cared for Goldeneye. Possibly because I never gave a shit about James Bond. Perfect Dark 64 was my jam.

It's pretty much the same game.

The controls are CATSTROPHICALLY bad. Try playing it again on the N64 and you'll realize how awful it was. It's still fun as fuck to play with friends though, because the controls are so awful no one will manage to be better than anyone else.

I don't know about him but I'm already used to it so it wouldn't really be any different from back then. FPS may be the only issue at most.

I replayed it recently and it felt like a first person RE4, since you only get precise aiming when you stop. Hip shooting is there, but it only works well in specific circumstances. The C-buttons let you peek out of corners too, so you can improvise cover as well.

perfect dark is also worth playing. there arent too many mission based FPS games with a linear level design/selection.

perfect dark and goldeneye are really the only ones i know about.

also, most FPSs just increase how difficult the enemies are, while these games add more difficult tasks to the game. my only complaint about both of these is i hate the idea of mid-level spawnpoints. completely defeats the purpose of being thorough.

>clear hallways

>clear rooms

>check all corners

>go to open door

>enemies materialize out of nowhere, come from empty room and shoot you in the back.

is it so hard to put an un-openable door so atleast i can be rewarded for paying attention to the environment? "oh, guys may come from this area so i should probably keep an eye open"

This debate would be trivialized if console games allowed control rebinding and most don't, a big reason why consoles are shit and why console games are best emulated.

>>15892952

many games still allow you to completely change key bindings but its becoming more and more rare. however most of the "new" consoles allow rebinding through accessibility options even though its not perfect.

all games are being dumbed down. so many new PC games dont even let you change the FOV anymore, or let you only change it by 20-30 degrees.
