Fair enough, but acting as if your rhetorical question was literal, your position is at its most logical for games that are commodities -- "oh, yet another FPS, whatever", but someone might care more for games that offer something beyond the usual.

I tend to have Fear Of Missing Out, and perhaps you do not, but for Superhot in particular (which I just bought), it's been extremely popular, at least in part because of its time manipulation, which is unusual although not absolutely unique.

Anyway I agree that all games should support rebinding; it should just be a checklist item before considering the product to be finished.

P.S. I haven't looked into it, but it sure sounds like Steam has been working on things like supporting "all" controllers via remapping even when the game itself does not, via Steamworks integration, and if they do that, then other kinds of remapping should be similarly supported (eventually?), and if Steam does it, surely Gog could also do it, in theory?

I really have no idea whether Superhot has that problem but I had that problem with games I have bought in the past that I really wanted to play and that's how I got around it. Otherwise, the normal controls might be just fine for you.

You're welcome -- i'm happy to recommend games that worked for me when i see them. ;)

Indeed.

And as for framework specific stuff, it's just that: platform specific.
