When I realised that you could click on all the buttons in the cockpit, it went wrong very quickly.

Not according to the DiS Brane Collective it isn’t

I think my favourite FS thing at the moment is the rash of articles coming out now about how to find specific keys on your keyboard.

[manches]

where’s the any key!?!

[still_he_persisted]

Quick poll. Ps controls listed but swap out for xbox if you please.

When a game asks you to press any button to continue, you’re still just pressing either x or start right? Surely noone is perverted enough to be pressing R1 or left on the digital dpad?

• I always press either X or Start
• I am deeply perverted

[Parsefone]

Enter.

If you’ve ever had a Nintendo console you’ll know there are no rules when it comes to designated buttons to progress

I press which ever button is under my thumb at the time

[breakfast_t_england]

one of the things that always very slightly irks me is when a game says “press Options to start” or whatever, but will actually allow you to press any button to start. why not just say “press anything to start”?

[colinfilth]

Usually down to sloppy coding/QA that surely?

[breakfast_t_england]

probably - the first game that comes to mind is all the F1 games so… yeah

obviously it’s fine to let you press any button to start, just make the prompt match the required behaviour!

[noise_ramones]

I don’t really understand how you can say BOTW has no bloat. It’s still doing the same thing over and over again for at least 90% of it…

[Otto]

Yeah it’s not the bloatless game I sort of made it out to be, but I think it’s far more focused game than most open world ones. It’s repetitive, but there’s a lot less side stuff, and you don’t feel constantly harangued.

[noise_ramones]

Yeah fair enough, I think it is a little more streamlined and the world has more unique things than many… But its definitely way too large for the number of things they designed, a lot of it feels barren and sterile… And then, Oh these enemies again, oh this shrine again for the 20th time, oh this exact same puzzle to find these stupid nuts that do nothing again…

Also absolutely hated the cooking system, every second doing that was a massive time waster
