It just makes me sad that RA puts emphasis on stuff that sidesteps glaring flaws.
Stuff like these are just nonsense imo:
- RA running on Windows 98 and other ancient tech.
- Random single game ports.
- Constant aesthetic tweaking of a UI that is almost unusable anyway.
The retropad input model is so broken, it makes me wonder if anyone actually uses RA. Seriously. Jaguar, Atari 5200, and some 2600 games are unplayable because they don't adhere to a standard DS4/XBox gamepad layout. Insane design decision.
The fact RA and libretro are so tightly coupled: it's just as painful. Any major change to RA means every core has to be updated.
The list just goes on. You can't see which cores are created from recent source builds... etc...
I see the value of the project, and I do appreciate it is worked on by people who love games and want to share with the world... but that input model, omg.
