Remedy's multiplayer Control spinoff looks even weirder than I expected: A co-op FPS where you shoot goo and garden gnomes at murderous monsters from another dimension (www.pcgamer.com)

Kind of disappointed that it's an FPS game, Remedy has always been great at third person games

Do people like how do those third person Remedy games control? I was always put off by how stiff they were which is even worse with camera behind the player character. I was kinda excited about the switch to first person since more direct movement is more suited to these kind of controls.

I feel the exact opposite, most FPS games are much stiffer and unnatural feeling compared to a good third person game. I feel like control had a nice flow to the controls in particular.

I like third person games but Control and Days Gone are some examples of stuff I bounced off entirely based on how bad they felt. I assumed people played those games because they were good games and those people weren’t that bothered by controls. It’s interesting to see some people actually enjoy it. Thanks for the perspective.
