Why does Retroarch feel so shitty to use compared to standalone emulators?

but thats what retroarch uses.

One-in-all solutions usually do because they lack focus

lol just point to NULL bro

It doesn't, you've just been filtered.

you've got to admit that while being very powerful and configurable, even the newer streamlined versions of the interface are a little clunky in terms of required inputs and traversal when it comes to simple things like navigating around for game and option selection if you're using a pad

Only if you have thousands of games in your library for some reason. Otherwise it takes 5 seconds to find and start something once you've set core association.

I've been trying to get flycast to work on retro forever and it always closes down due to error. Haven't fuck with it since.

I'd say it becomes difficult once you've got more than like 20-30 games total you might want to browse through or play, and god forbid you touch the whole MAME/retro cabinet core stuff and how it organizes those when most won't even play with their auto-associated core and you can just load up fbneo, but I don't know a simple solution to make it better without just having a better cursor/grid based file browser function for certain submenus

I dont understand why general retroarch settings even exist, who the hell is going to want similar settings between cores?? every time i use a core on retroarch i want to customize it and it always feels like garbage because everything is laid out so horribly
