I hate WASD. I won't buy a game like Tales of Monkey Island again. I like the steering of games like Sam'n'Max or the easy user interface of Ankh (also a funny adventure, and i don't need to think a second about the steering). ToMI episodes 2-5 are unused at my side. It's best if i don't even need to touch a keyboard hile playing (makes it easier with a daugther to play Ankh on TV (with attached PC and just an easy trackball as "remote").
If a next Sam n Max game ill be like ToMI I just won't buy it because of the user interface. I really hate it. It was the lousiest spend money. Hey, i bought Bone, Sam'n'Max Season 1+2, (season 1 twice ( translated) ). I liked to play them. But i get angry when thinking that i spend money for ToMI. Not for story , just because of the user interface.
A lousy use interface as for me the point not to buy Monkey Island 4 ages ago. And it will be definitly be the "do not buy" reason for me for new Telltale Games. Heck, camera is just a bit of presentation. Much more user unfriendly mouse movement is necessary to use ToMI than e.g. Bone.
It's a little bit sad to don't play new games ith the rabbity thing, but if you use the steering of Tales of Monkey Island I ill be glad NOT to buy another Sam'n'Max.

And one thing: What does a cinematography director know about gameplay? His ork is about presentation, not about using sth.
