Why do people like the legacy editor?

Postby mariobrigade2018 » Tue Apr 16, 2024 9:39 pm

I sometimes see people say that the pge editor is confusing and overwhelming and say that the legacy editor is easier to use. :? I don’t get them. 1.4.5’s editor is confusing as hell to navigate and create stuff, which is similar to the legacy editor. So the question is why? Why do people use those type of editors? How did they get used to it, and why don’t they want to change?

I don't see any people who said that, at least on the SMBX discord and this forum, but I think they're already get used in the old editor instead of PGE (And yes, I still call the new editor "PGE").

And why did they use that? Well, because they wanted to. Some people have their own preferences.

I mean, you could argue the same thing for PGE, but yea, it is preference at the end of the day

The only argument I could see being made is that SMBX 1.3 has a real time Editor which, while not too praticle for designing levels, can be a fun waste of time to just mess around with.
