Comment (by tomysshadow):
Sure, I can reinstall the game without the patch later and test it that
way and give a save game for that. I would send a video too but it
wouldn't demonstrate very much since the interaction looks the same on
screen either way, the only difference is the controls.
I will say that, while it sounds weird as I'm describing it, it feels
right when I use it. I think they probably realized during testing that
people were clicking on it without holding the mouse down, because there's
nothing to indicate it is a drag and drop interaction just looking at it,
so they added this workaround to make it more obvious what you're meant to
do. Once you do know it's click and drag, you might then start holding the
mouse down to use it so they supported that too. It's very believable to
me that they would've discovered this problem, if the YouTube playthrough
evidence means anything.
I'm hoping that you get the chance to try it out for yourself, it is very
straightforward to test. Try doing a quick click without holding down the
button and watch what happens. Then try clicking and holding the mouse and
watch what happens. Assuming it wasn't changed in a patch, it should work
as I had described.
