    What I never wanna see again is a game having me hold a button instead of pressing it, for literally anything

    Topical example would be apace marine 2

      Holding it is better than pressing it 10,000x as fast as you can. That shit is fun when you’re 12. Not so much when you’re twice that age.

        I’m positive I couldnt beat Metal Gear Solid 4 again 16 years later. One of the final sequences involves what felt like a 15 minute button mashing section that took extremely in shape 20 somthing me to my limit. My fucking forearms cramped like a really bad period

          Most games these days have a setting in the accessibility settings section to change tapping to holding, and that’s always one of the first things I check.

        This is about normal things like picking up an item, not a QTE. It feels horrible and a pretty big time waster.

          They said “for literally anything” but yes, holding a button to pick something up gets annoying.

      God yes. It makes everything feel unresponsive and less snappy.
