There are some things that gamers just need to do. Whether it's leaning forward after going one down in FIFA or holding the thumbstick forward while in a vehicle even though you don't have to, it just feels natural. It doesn't add or subtract anything from the input or even the gameplay, but most of us do it just because it feels right.
Even wild dogs are dunking on me.
In the case of Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2, mouse and keyboard players might hold down the 'W' while riding the horse even though there's no need. The game throws up a notification that you don't need to do so, just for your convenience, which you can totally just ignore. The problem is that it pops up almost every time you do it, to the annoyance of many.
The most annoying part about this pop-up is that it doesn't go away by itself, so you can't really ignore it. Not only do you have to press an input to make it go away, but you have to hold it. This has resulted in many players holding down 'W' in sheer spite at the game, as illustrated by slowbromow's post on Reddit....
