crappy movement controls.
just wanted to feedback this:

what i do hate is the crappy control system, which is so bad it is frustrating:
trying to dodge around a orc with immunity to dodging, for the auto aim system to constantly choice to try and dodge over That exact orc.
camera getting fked by environment so you can see anything.
enemies prompt icons being outside of screen because zoom is so bad that you can't see the prompt (happens constantly with trolls).
talion choosing to hang on a wall piece as an idiot while you try to simply run away from the fight.
talion getting stuck on a table because you can't dodge over the edge and there is 10 orcs trying to hit you and you need 5seconds of standing like an idiot for him to finally understand you wanted him to JUMP! (WTF is there no actual jump key? which useless crappy amateur designer did that bs when there is SOOO many situations you NEED to be able to control the jump functionality).
(auto targeting also made me pissy when i for the six time in a row tried to break open a caragor cage to see talion jump 10meters away from the cage to attack some downed orc -_- give me REAL control over the character FFS, it's NOT hard, its been done for at least 20 years; so get your crap together devs)
etc etc etc.

the movement systems controls in the game is so crappy it could not have been made by anything else than a crappy console game designer who doesn't know the first basic thing about game design... it's pathetic imho.

also give us a FOV slider and a decent zoom functionality you Amateurs!!

edit: and remove microtransaction greed bs and fix the designs you fcked up to force these ridiculess lootboxes into the game.
it's ridiculess and i personally am not supporting you at any time in the future if you don't fix it, Fast.
(and this feedback is ofc. done for a friend who obviously bucked under and supported this ridiculess greedy abusive crap, but didn't have the time to give this feedback to the devs)

egzactly. the auto directional crap control consistently choosing the wrong directions makes me want to throw the controller every few minutes or less. and i havent wanted to throw a controller since .... years... many many years!

ty ^^ old post but i want to add a little as it is relevant :)

here is the real sad thing about it, its an easy thing to fix, even if you can't redo the targeting system, add actual jump keys+functionality (camera and fov is a float variable you simply need to change so seriously you lazy amataurs fix that crap).

all you need to do to make it vastly better is to change the priority listing on the automated systems, so they do the optimal instead of the worst.

as it is now you will auto-target the worst target, if there is an immunity and you use that skill it will target the one with immunity the vast majority of times. this is 101 game design done in the most terrible way you could 180 wrong.
you should make it always priotize the best target.
so if there is an immunity you will always target another target with that move if there is any valid targets within the area of the immune orc.

as for getting stuck on walls, table's etc. when orc's are around it should always prioritize instant jumping of stuff and Not crawling on walls unless the arc to the wall is very direct (meaning you are running into it at close to a perpendicular angle; directly at it).

these are VERY simple to fix and could be done in a day or two and it would make you feel like your targeting is much more spot on, make you feel "happy" in some situation that it takes control away from you to avoid you doing a wrong move etc.

obviously this is not obtimal as we are now getting the "handicap" help to control, but it is VASTLY better than handicapping our controls by ignoring our order and making us attack a wrong target constantly even though we clearly wasn't even remotely aiming at that target.

it all just smell of amataur crappy knowledgeless console peasent devs!.
how i hate consoles and everything which have persisted to stay within gaming because of those horrificly broken and outdated systems -_-

-------
this is without mentioning the utter crap storm which came with mobile gaming (microtransaction bs) and how it have become so bad that now regulations are Finally, after 15+years of being retareded, are being talked about and hopefully set into place (which again is as fckng simple as using your brain and saying "you don't get a free card, no laws apply, just because you say *this dollar is now an online blip dollar which you buy with 1dollar, so now i can use the currency without any laws applying*"..
seriously what useless pieces of moronic idiots would go with that as a "ow that seems totally fine, nope we cannot at all figure out how we should regulated now that you are calling it a Blip dollar instead of a dollar; ow my how shall we ever understand how to regulated such a magical thing....

fckng moron people should all drink acid and die imho....
(yes idiots, abusive fcks, and evil people just doesn't belong in a civilized world imho).

the controls are garbage, with auto-aim the biggest culprit. I spend more time pounding my own team then a broken captain. As far as I can tell, these imbeciles managed to put a "reverse priority" on their targeting system, where basically you go after the least important things first. Probably a way of increasing difficulty or something cheesy. Game design--at least for the pc port--is absolutely terrible. This game could be called, Shadow of the Shadow of Mordor
