Ok I have to get this off my chest. For decades I remember hearing PC gamers (I am a PC gamer so I'm not trying to create some PC vs console war shit) say this every time someone suggested a console port. I always thought - what the fuck am I not seeing? It's a third person view game, you walk around and press buttons. Am I going fucking mad? I always felt even the most braindead person could conceive of a very functional control scheme. It never needed some stroke of innovative genius to figure it out.
I get FPS, RTS, strategy...all that shit, yeah I get it. If you say they suck on console, I can see it. But I've always been really confused about what made PC gamers back then think this would be impossible to port to consoles. I didn't just see this a few times here and there - it was repeated over and over universally every time the question came up.
Please enlighten me, 90's PC gamers. What the fuck made Diablo impossible to imagine playing on a controller?
