I’m aftaid you are missing the point. Yes, it’s absolutely possible, often superior to play with digital input. The problem is twofold. One, it’ll be a completely different gameplay experience than the PS4/XBONE. Two, 99% of players only know how to play with the analogue triggers, and rely on them. Forcing them to play with digital input will piss a ton of people off.Originally Posted by Ch4er0n Go to original post
Wouldn't most of those people already just be playing on a console like PS4/XBONE or on a PC using a controller with analogue triggers?Originally Posted by Ubishidt Go to original post
Most likely. But, “play it on a different console” is not the solution I’m looking for. I played EVO on 360, jumped ship to PS4 for Fusion, and now that I have a Nintendo Switch, I prefer to play as many games on there as I possibly can. The pick up and play handheld experience is just THAT good.
Tens of millions of people will have a Switch when Rising comes out, damn near all of them smitten by its charms. People are going to be let down if they have to “settle” for the PS4/XBOX version. So yeah, how it plays on the Switch is a BIG deal.
Fair enough. I personally don't feel like there's that much of a difference between analogue and digital for most purposes save for Ninja, and this might basically just be a throwback to playing Trials 2 with a controller (which doesn't actually make use of analogue controls). If they do decide to use the analogue sticks instead though it would be interesting to see how it pans out.
