Call me weird but I have an odd nostalgia for games whose control schemes don’t make all that much sense. I had a bunch of Apple II games where the keys weren’t laid out ergonomically at all. As if they were seen more as “software” than a console game.
- acadiel 4y agoHalf the fun with old computer games was figuring out which keys they used (if you didn’t have the manual)!
- flohofwoe 4y agoSometimes the control scheme suddenly makes a lot of sense when you see the original keyboard layout, and sometimes joysticks also emulated key pressed (like here on the ZX Spectrum: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ZX_Interface_2 https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ZX_Interface_2).
- Bluecobra 4y agoOne thing I kinda miss were those little keyboard overlays to help remember the control scheme.
