Inverted y-axis

On a mouse, no. Controller, yes for the reasons Rroff has already mentioned.

Always invert if using controller but to invert the mouse just feels strange.

Inverted for controller for me, but not for mouse.
I am quite surprised at the number of people who do this.
I think I am the only one of the people who I play with who does this. They all think it is so strange.

I can do both. Takes probably a couple of minutes to adjust, then all is good.

Don't really have a preference either. I'm much more irritated if I can't remap the movement controls.

Not that I’m into them or even played one but am I right in saying that the Lego games don’t even have the option to invert?

This.

What kind of heathen inverts the mouse? That's just weird!

I converted to inverted on the controller 4 - 5 months ago and converted to inverted mouse a month ago. It seemed to improve my mouse control but it was pure trippin at first.

Inverted club member here for controllers.

Yes always invert.

I'm yet to hear any convincing argument otherwise, inverted is the way the real world works. I have a a friend who doesn't invert but he also has a peculiar dress sense, a very strange and limited food pallet and is colour blind. All these things are related I feel.

Yep I don’t get the inverted for flight sims only, but then not for FPS. It’s basically the same. To aim a gun up you pull it back and in potential move head/lean back

Take subnautica for example would you then want inverted for swimming (as almost flight sim) but normal as soon as you leave the water? That would be confusing.

Inverted all the way

So it seems, I am quite normal

Personally I've never understood why EVERY single game defaults the Y axis to so called "normal" with the odd game not even offering the ability to change it.

Rroff · 6 Dec 2018 at 22:04

I don't really care what the default is personally but not having the option to change it means a game is pretty much unplayable for me. Almost as bad is the games with poor or lacking mouse options in general especially when they have split X/Y sensitivity with no option to change it - so drawing a circle physically with the mouse comes out as an oval in the game.
