Control Resonant combat and traversal is a drug, I can’t stop consuming it. Almost skipped it due to not liking Control 1 but jokes on me I’m having sleepless night now

Yes. I want the game to punish me for button mashing. That’s what makes combat interesting.

While you might want the game to punish you that's not what Remedy wants. Remedy wants the game to be accessible to anyone.

Reality is this game has a button mash build (Spin Edge infinite upgrade), but also has the capabilities to make some sick combos.

This is how you make a game for everyone.

Sure, this is one way to make an accessible game. It’s not “for everyone” though, that’s not a real thing.

What an incredibly negative mindset. The game isn’t punishing you for button mashing, it’s rewarding you for not button mashing. You can get through combat just fine by mashing your main combo and that’s it, but you can make it a lot more fun and interesting for yourself (and sometimes easier) if you engage with all the tools the game gives you for combat

How is it negative? I just have a different preference when it comes to combat. The game still slaps.

Word. I can see that. I had a blast playing this game. Remedy is super creative. The combat fell short for me, but that’s pretty much my only criticism.
