Telltale Games

For me it was just click and drag; mouse only(no keyboard).

The gamepad method just didn't seem to work out for me(too imprecise).

This poll is just wrong. not enough options.

I'd like to add that I'm currently play Wallace and Gromit with gamepad + mouse and enjoying it more than WASD + mouse.

I prefer point & click gameplay, but I really dislike the new click and drag/wsad movement system, I find it physically painful to play. When it comes to comparing playing Tales/S&M season 3, a gamepad is definitely the way to go.

If that's so, you might try a trackball.

Yes, I imagine that adding eg. two further levels of awesomeness to both control methods would have REALLY helped things along

JohnJohn · 05/17/2010, 03:56 pm

WASD + Mouse is the best way, I played all of the game like that and had no problems with it.

I am sure he/she is referring to the fact that you do not have Click & Drag as an option.

pwblaine · 05/18/2010, 12:06 am

i concur that it depends on your setup, i play with my gamepad because it simplifies the buttons in front of me and i don't need to remember any keyboard mapping, especially if its bothersome to me. most importantly though, my computer goes through my television, i just lie to lie back in bed and not have to worry about a mousepad or whatnot

DPB · 05/18/2010, 02:29 am

I use the mouse exclusively, somehow the click & drag controls seem much more refined and easier to use than they did in Tales of Monkey Island, when I sometimes resorted to using the keyboard too.

Bloody Eugene · 05/18/2010, 03:00 am

To me TOMI mouse controls (click'n'drag) were better.

Sir Primalform Magnifico · 05/18/2010, 08:33 am

I prefer gamepad, but I'd actually prefer total keyboard control if it were available.

Possibly. Why doesn't he say so?

He did. So did I. Mouse-only isn't listed as a choice, so I didn't choose anything.

Rather Dashing · 05/21/2010, 07:37 am

I'm finding myself switching between the two for episode 2, which I haven't finished yet and I'm playing in short bursts. When I play on the TV, I'm using the Gamepad, when I play on the computer monitor I favor WASD+mouse(I use DropBox to sync my saved games).

No, he didn't, unless under a different identity

And click-and-drag was left out intentionally.

Andorxor · 05/23/2010, 12:19 am

Mouse only,with keys for the places that are too narrow for it.

Rubarack · 06/13/2010, 10:59 am

For me it's click/drag, but I've not tried all the options on any one game. I tried WASD versus gamepad on W&G and the gamepad was vastly superior there. I'm glad Telltale managed to get click/drag working in time for ToMI because I really don't like WASD at all.
