Ever since I got a decent PC I've not minded not having a console.<br /><br />The gestures system reminds me of Black and White. The gesture system in that felt so cool, until I couldn't consistently draw anything quickly, and then it was just frustrating and obnoxious.Klepsacovichttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07915576683657376929noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5462978744516866472.post-16904160077909441652013-07-25T21:33:07.055-05:002013-07-25T21:33:07.055-05:00Do you really not own a console?

I play games on a PC first and foremost, but over the years I've ended up with all the popular consoles, for things like Guitar Hero, Journey and Nintendo's various franchises.<br /><br />I think WoW gets away with its interface being less than optimal because there are so many third-party options to replace it. I spend a lot of time designing and redesigning my WoW interface to make it as... well I guess "seamless" is the proper word to use. The goal is to remove as much as possible between my making a decision and my avatar performing it.<br /><br />Interface isn't the most important part of a game <i>exactly</i>, but it's the most important thing to not fuck up. A perfect example: I'm sure many Wii games are great, but I'll never know because they expect me to jiggle my right hand spastically to perform an action that should have just been a fucking button.<br /><br />In my opinion there has been no better symbol of what motion controls represent at this point in time than seeing someone frantically perform a mid-air wanking motion with a penis-shaped controller in their hand.Coreushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10258450322199352185noreply@blogger.com
