PoE 2 Controls: New Normal?
I do not recall when evade (space) became a thing in this genre but it's become difficult to play a title that doesn't have it. This isn't my point though, it's that Path of Exile 2 did it again. When it asked me which control style I preferred I was confused. I chose WASD for control and was blown away when I could use the mouse to rotate the player whilst moving. Subtle thing but it's such a great idea!
Combine this new movement with evade and the game feels completely different than other titles, and I'm curious of this will (or has already) become a trend? Any other titles already implement this style of movement?
Edit: I should clarify that in PoE 2 WASD moves the character in world space, while the mouse independently controls which direction the character is facing. That's the key distinction.
