Great game aging poorly, or a shoddy port?

[Regnes]

Ok so this was easily one of my favourite games on the Gamecube, and I got a nostalgia rush thinking about playing it again on PC. The only problem, I'm actually having a lot of difficulty playing it. I know the combat was always a weak point of the game, but the camera is atrocious, it's barely responsive a lot of the time, often gets stuck at horrible angles, and even when I'm moving it around freely I often just can't get the angle I'm looking for. I can't remember, were you ever able to look up most of the time, because it seems like it's more often than not fixed in place what I'm allowed to see.

Just a shoddy port. The camera goes haywire when you're being attacked from multiple directions

The ps2 version had way better camera control than this. When using the very same controller on Sands Of Time I used on the ps2 version, the pc versions camera controls don't work half as good.

I think this game is aging amazing.

I still try and play whole trilogy every year.

Fault "Kudosoft", who made the port.

I'm incredibly surprised they (and not the original dev) are listed on the game's store page as the developer.
