Yeah, but come on now... Adapting to this kind of thing doesn't take that long. Up is up, down is down. You should be able to get used to that even if you have played flight simulators all your life. Probably.

It's like driving a car with right hand drive when you live in a country with only left hand drive cars. You shift with the other hand and sometimes the indicators and wiper controls are on the "wrong" sides. You also have to position the car differently on the road and get used to look in the mirrors the wrong way. Even the most veteran LHD driver can get used to that. Probably.



... but I never realized how many people actually play with inverted controls. Do you play Counter Strike with inverted controls? COD on the PC? GTA?

Is your mouse always inverted even when you do other stuff like browse the internet too?


My mind is asploaded.
