Topic	GameTok with Lok: Hardcore game design genius (me) explains all!
Lokarin 12/26/20 8:30:36 PM #5:	Mead posted... Why are so many console games using a cursor type interface for menus now? Its so dumb and really annoying to navigate a cursor around a menu with thumbsticks. Lol wut? Ok, my first thought was moving a virtual mouse around which is hella stupid... that's legit bad design. But my second thought was that it could be ok if there's item/list snapping, it'd basically be like the cursors in old games like the main menus of Mega Man. My guess is that it's lazy porting --- "Salt cures Everything!" My YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/user/Nirakolov/videos <cite>Lokarin posted [p:948789512] in GameTok wi...
