These controls are friggin embarrassing.

Holy shit. What is with devs putting fucking mouse acceleration in their games? At least Fallout had a config file you could edit to remove it. Telltale couldn't be bothered apparently. And just a few minutes in when you first start doing the QTEs, all they show is a blank arrow. They took the time to mention clicking and moving your mouse before, but they can't even put a fucking button on the screen? Yeah they release it on a lot of platforms and have to change the interface to match but they do that ANYWAY for button mashing QTEs. So what the fuck is the deal?

For the smartasses or clueless out there, you start out with only mouse controls for actions and the game tells you what to do. So a blank arrow appears and you move your mouse in the same direction to do the thing, right? No, die a dozen times not know WHAT THE FUCK YOU'RE SUPPOSED TO DO TO COMPLETE THE FIRST GODDAM QUTE IN THE GAME. THAT'S GOTTA BE A FUCKING JOKE ROFL. Jesus fucking Christ... a quick google search and you can see hundreds of people ran into the same issue in the first ten minutes of the fucking game. I've never had to look up what the fuck I was supposed to do to complete the first level in a game because the devs fucked up. Lmao that's all kinds of fucking hilarious.

And what's the worst part? A Wolf Among Us had FUCKING BUTTONS ON THEIR ARROWS FOR QTE'S. HOLY SHIT MIND-BLOWING. THE DEVS GOT WORSE AT MAKING THESE GAMES. IS THIS A FUCKING JOKE? YOU GOTTA BE KIDDING! Jesus fucking Christ, this shit is pathetic. It's bad enough that they're too goddam lazy to let you skip text for second playthroughs. Seriously, fuck you Telltale. Next time I want to play one of these fucking games I'm just going to watch a Youtube playthrough and save myself the trouble. This is idiotic levels of what the actual fuck happened in development. QA test much?

    I have no idea what you are talking, if your talking about that curved white arrow on the bottom of the screen I just press either the A or D button and it works perfectly. If your talking about instances like cleaning Lord Forresters sword then I really don't understand because its is plain and simple. and the button mashing for buttons like E and Q works perfectly which then makes me think this is weird. I have never seen this problem and a lot of people I know who have played this game has never had this problem.

  • I saw this in a few threads and may have a solution. If you are using a software KVM like Synergy, it can cause issues with mouse movement. (Look up "Photoshop" and "Synergy" for similar issues.) I disabled Synergy to play and had no issues afterward. Before, it was exactly the same issue: no smooth mouse acceleration and a really unenjoyable experience.

  • This thread is embarassing.

  • IKR?

  • Guess I am clueless, I have absolutely no idea what you are talking about. But I hope you solve your problem, buddy.

    Not trying to be tone police or anything but you can get help and express your frustrations without cussing out the devs just trying to do their jobs, it would probably be more effective without it.

  • Can the moderators close this thread. It's pretty old.
