Image / Video Fluid & Satisfying combat in Control Resonant

FOV is at 65 instead of default 100 to make it more cinematic, but it makes the game harder (harder to have enemy-awareness, hard to do very quick traversal movement etc). i still do think you should play at like 80 FOV or something compared to 100

To be fair, chucking rocks at people was the most fun part of Control's combat loop. Shooting the gun wound up being a way to pass the time as you rebuild energy to keep throwing stuff.

honestly accurate. the gun was basically the 'please hold' music between rock throws. i'd burn my whole energy bar hurling concrete and then just stand there plinking with grip until i could do it again.
