    I don't. I like the new system because it frees up my thumb so I can control the camera

    I did, but now I don't. I'm getting used to it.

    Yeah, I still do that most of the time.
    Old habits die hard.

    I didn't even realize that X no longer did anything when I first started playing AC3.

    I did for a while but broke the habit quickly, but when I went back to play ACII, I kept forgetting to press it. While it is better that you don't have to press x to run, I really wish the left it so you need to press x to climb.

    Only when I want to vault over something.

    Maybe it's just me, but I never had any issue using the camera with the old system. Thumb on X/Middle finger on R1/Index finger on camera control. It was never uncomfortable for me, but I do have pretty big hands.

    No, but I wish I could and it would work the same way as previous games. The new system is clumsy as hell.

    The controls were fine IMO, it's what we can do with Parkour that matters and what I'd like to see innovated.
