Who plays like that x_x

If the first game you ever played with a stick was a flight simulator, then down is up.
Literally just realized this is why I always invert.
-
if you lean forward you look down - why would controls be any different?
By that logic, tilting the stick to the left should either make you look to the right, or just rotate the view without actually changing the direction you're looking in
Tipping makes sense. Idk it's like if the joystick is the top of your character's head.

Elite, Wing Commander, and Secret Weapons of the Luftwaffe shaped me before looking up or down was even a thing in FPS games.

I think it's the original Halo that asks you to look up or down during the tutorial, and then chooses your input method based on what you press.
Was a neat way of doing it.
Me: right stick
Computer: ... Welp

It’s how games with flying should control but that’s the only application it should be used in to me. I believe this since that’s how it works in IRL.

Flying games should have an option to choose regular or inverted.
If you're into piloting, got a joystick or something - sure, inverted is your choice.
Otherwise it's just unnecessarily confusing.

I exclusively play inverted. I find it also gives better control while playing FPS games.
You're a monster

I understand that but it’s simply more realistic to be inverted. I am very used to it because honestly most games with flying controls make inverted default anyway.

Some people visualize their Y tilt "lever" as in front of the fulcrum of their neck, and some people visualize it as behind the fulcrum. Thus some people find an inverted Y axis to be intuitive, while others don't. At least, this is how the reason for the preference has been explained to me.
I still think all you inverted Y axis people are monsters.
It it would be a lever behind, X axis would be inverted too.
Y inversion is just terrible and has no good explanation in relation to non-piloting games (and even there most people would be better off with regular Y)

Wow, that's an interesting way

wrote last edited by [email protected]I'm just completely unable to learn inverted Y.
Any game that doesn't have an option to make it regular is unplayable for me. Oh, and sadly IRL radio controlled planes are too. I tried two, and both got smacked into the ground and needed repairs.
I can comprehend it when both axis are inverted, but when it's only one, it doesn't click.

2 and 3 do the same diagnostic routine, and Reach asks you to look at a building in the distance.

There are dozens of us! Dozens!

I think the third (fourth?) Ratchet & Clank also did that.

I like to imagine inverted players control their character by grabbing a stick on the top of their characters head

Videogame cameras in 1st person it's supposed to work like this:
The REAL inverted would be move stick down and then you see down.
Its two different perspectives. One is controlling a character as if they are controlling a camera from the rear. The other is the more common, where you're using the joystick to move the point that you're looking at.

The back lever thing is a simplification. It's more that they visualise it as controlling the yaw and pitch, like gluing the joystick to the top of their head. Point is though that it's there as an accessible option

Which way should the text on your screen move when you spin the mouse wheel?

My friend insisted it was supposed to be played like that. It was my first real fps, so I put in effort to learn it. Too late to change it now.

You're right, but somewhere along the way we all got used to the other way
