This thread is so long because it\'s very important how do you interact with the game...

I quit playing Anarchy online because I couldn\'t get used to their idea of ergonomic MMI.

I like Project Entropia MMI ... check it out. It\'s a good compromise.

And about changing keys.xml?

Yeah we can. We can even do it with the vi editor - but it is 2004 not 1986.

MMI- (Man - Machine Interface)

Okay first off, after reading this, I went in game, and if you ask me, mouse look is perfectly fine for a game with zero combat. (Yes zero is smaller than a small amount). Why do you need fancy mouselook?
I think the idea of moving by clicking a mouse is ludicrous, and err... lazy... Press the keys.

And forgive my bluntness, but what the heck has 1986 got to do with anything? I was one, go me!

Too lazy to edit a file? Don\'t like it, create your own game, or maybe a mod that allows you to change your keys in game...

I like Red Jelly Beans!

A: It is not hard to edit the keys.xml
B: 1986 was a very good year.
C: the fact that computers have been around so long should make you more able to understand how to use them properly not less capable of editing a text file.
D: The mouse look is fine and you should get used to using another interface instead of demanding that everyone make things your way. There are more people in the world than just you and ya\'all are being rather selfish in saying that the interface needs to work just for you.
If on the otherhand you are proposing that they include your mouselook functions as an option, then they will probably get on that as soon as they get to the rest of the \'bells and whistles\' as Acraig so lovingly calls them.
