I have played a lot of Exanima and can't get comfortable controlling my character, the camera/character controls still gives me headaches. The main cause is the character relative WASD control. If the combat gets even a little bit chaotic and you move try to move your character while swinging its really hard to adjust your brain to the new orientation. Suddenly your character move right when you wanted to step back.
I have a few suggestions that would be helpful in my opinion:
- Camera relative movement Most important for me ( basically how any isometric game uses WASD control. If your character faces right, pressing the W key would mean moving left for your character instead of forward. )
- Give strength to attack without shaking your mouse ( this would remove the necessity to shake your mouse you don't have to readjust your brain if you want to reposition your character. )
- Camera trying to be behind your character Bandaid solution ( right now if i hold down the key that make the camera look where your character does, the camera would act crazy when i swing with my weapon, because you have to swing with your mouse to give decent enough strength to your attacks. so this new option would automatically follow but delays it so when you spin you have time to move your cursor back. )
If you don't have the same problems as i, what is it that helped you become comfortable with the controls?
