Quote:... Resident Evil? (I mention it because I recall Grim Fandango's movement being compared to Resident Evil at least once)
But I'd say that there are many many PC games that are third person. And many of them use WASD!
Resident Evil is a slow game, and its controls are purposefully bad.
AGAIN: Using WASD does not mean that they control the same!!!
As you can see by the chart I've created below, you've become so much of a retard that it's off the charts! Please see attached image.
Quote:The only thing I can think of that was compared to Zelda was a mediocre action-adventure a few years back called Hype: The Time Quest... the characters were Playmobil knights and stuff...
But as I said, how many games directly compare to Zelda? Are there many on PS2 or X-Box? Oh, there are plenty of action-adventures, and those other subcategories, but as I said PC has a lot of those as well.
And it is not true that most PC games are either RTSes or FPSes. I have several hundred PC games after all and only five are FPSes and probably a dozen or something like that RTS... What is true is that most PC games are made with PCs in mind (if they aren't ports). So a action-RPG goes more in the direction of Ultima (though that's closer to a hardcore RPG) or Diablo, and not closer to Zelda. And an action-adventure? I don't know... Tomb Raider? I know they were on PSX too but they've been on PC from the start... that's one anyway.
Most PC games that only use a kb&m CONTROL like FPSs or strategy games. That is because that control setup is extremely limited and is very poor for most genres.
