Yep, double shitty. Makes me want to start sailing. 🏴‍☠️

rustyriffs ,

Haven’t seen a rick roll in a while. Someone else click on it first. Lol

rustyriffs ,

Called it. 🤣

rustyriffs ,

One of my favorites for sure. I hope they make another action RPG without roguelike elements.

SANABI

This game absolutely blew me away.

rustyriffs ,

There needs to be a post about ‘what will be the next great exodus’ so we can prepare for that too. 😁

rustyriffs ,

This game looks sick and I’m so fucking into it. I hope it runs great and doesn’t have any issues on pc because the prince of persia’s were always some of my favorite games back in the day. It’s pretty good I think, to see them taking a different approach this time.

rustyriffs OP ,

I can not handle their website XD

Their controller does seem pretty good. I like the (seemingly good) repairability aspect too.

A few features that I’ve grown accustomed to on my current controller are the additional buttons (this one has m1 and m2 buttons on the shoulders, though that isn’t really my favorite position for them), and the other thing would be the tactile switches in the face buttons. The switches in the face buttons for the Gulikit do look interesting, but I really like the tactile clicky switches that are in the Razr. I do wonder how they compare.

One of the main features that I feel like I’m lacking right now is definitely wireless. Using a ~10’ cable when you’re on a laptop is really no fun.

Another thing that I really like to see in a controller is an easy way to take screenshots, though, that can usually be remedied with a software solution as well.

rustyriffs OP ,

Interesting. I’m curious as to what examples you like for gyro aiming, because it’s not something I typically think of as a way of control for most games that I play.

Are you able to get much functionality out of the haptics, or the triggers?

How useful/customizable is the pad when using it on PC?

rustyriffs OP ,

Yes, I think you got the name right.

So, sorry for the confusion, are you able to use the bluetooth functionality on Linux then? That is something that would be appealing to me.

rustyriffs OP ,

Nice!

rustyriffs OP ,

The fit and function of the iconic 360 controller is hard to beat, no doubt.

rustyriffs OP ,

I was always curious about the steam controller. It definitely was/is a unique and cool concept. I was never sure how well it would work, or how easily of a transition it would’ve been or what usecases would’ve been the best to use it for. I always kind of got the impression that it was probably one of those “jack of all trades, master of none” type of scenarios…

I’ve never used one though, so that’s all speculation on my part.

rustyriffs OP ,

That’s a bummer that you can’t use both control types at the same time. I could definitely see the draw for the gyro (assist) aiming, that’s a neat concept. I don’t think I play enough FPS’s anymore to warrant taking the time to experiment, but it’s definitely good to know that the capability is there if I ever feel like giving it a try.

So, it rumbles, but likely not using the full haptic capabilities. Somewhat disappointing but kind of expected considering the tech isn’t standard yet.

Adaptive triggers functionality not working was kind of expected too. What can you do?

I don’t really feel like I would have much of a use for the pad, as far as the capacitive touch capabilities go. I do think the button functionality of the touchpad would be useful to me though, as I always prefer to have a hardware screenshot button if possible when I’m using a controller.

Thanks for the response.

rustyriffs OP ,

More power to you, I like the fancy controllers though :)

rustyriffs OP ,

^asking the important questions!

rustyriffs OP ,

I’d really prefer to order directly from the manufacturer whenever I can. Mainly because I prefer not to use Amazon anymore…

Anyway, that controller looks fantastic! I may be looking at that one as a serious contender for the next upgrade, thank you for sharing. I really like the fact that the paddles are similar looking to the xbox pro controller ones. Those seem like really good quality, form, fit, and function.

The switches, on the razr controller, are so good (in my opinion) that I really am not sure if I could go back. Lol. I’ve had other people not get it though, when I tried to show them how amazing they are… They just commented that they are noisy compared to normal buttons. Totally missed the point.

I’d be super interested to see a review of the KK3 Max (mandatory eyeroll of solidarity).

I really dislike the xbox gamebar. There are workarounds though. My currently preferred method is to disable the xbox gamebar, and then use joytokey to setup a hotkey for screenshots. I have steam setup to use (F12) as my hotkey to save uncompressed copies in a folder that I use for my background images on my desktop. :)

Thanks for the good convo, and recommendation!

rustyriffs OP ,

Good controllers, pretty comfortable (if I remember correctly), and good battery life I’ve heard.

rustyriffs OP ,

Looks like KK3 Max got pushed back a bit, or it just released for preorder from the 5th. Goddamn preorders. NO. I’ll wait for the reviews, thanks.

rustyriffs , (edited )

It’s what plants crave!!!

rustyriffs ,

thanks

rustyriffs ,

🤣 😳

rustyriffs OP ,

The second thing you mentioned is what I’m asking about. A browser doesn’t solve this problem (as far as I know) because It’s still using the steam webpage’s interface. It would have to be some kind of alternative website frontend that grabs all the data from the steam website and gives it back to you in a different (better) way.

I’m not familiar with the steam decks version you mentioned

rustyriffs ,

Maybe it’s an opportunity to convince them otherwise?

rustyriffs ,

It’s going to stay good. Right?

RIGHT?!?!!!

rustyriffs ,

What does this mean?

rustyriffs ,

Thank you

rustyriffs ,

Hell yes! Looks badass!!!

rustyriffs ,

I can not understand how someone in their right mind would be looking at any content firehose without filtering, but it seems like that this is the reality for many.

I typically browse subscribed until I’m seeing posts I’ve already viewed. I occasionally switch to all to see if I will find any new content/ communities to subscribe to. How do you typically do it?

rustyriffs ,

I’m never on here during work. Even if I was, that point is pretty unhelpful. I think it’s a normal thing for people to want an unlimited supply of content, as that’s what we’ve gotten used to and that’s what these websites are for. What’s it to you, to dictate how I want to use my time? Whether this behavior is a good or bad thing is another argument. I think the limited content supply here is a concession that most people have accepted on Lemmy, but I also think that it’s possible that it wouldn’t have to be a concession as the platforms grow and get better.

rustyriffs ,

I was going to say you’re doing a disservice to McFarlane by making that comment, but he probably would’ve found it funny too. Carry on 😁

rustyriffs ,

I’ve never bought a $70 game and probably never will. $60 was too much for me. I think this is the point where I continue to just step out of the mainstream gaming field.

rustyriffs ,

Seems like a really cool concept. Something I’d be curious about is if there are ways to encourage people to support the authors as well.

rustyriffs ,

Almost, but didn’t? Why not?

rustyriffs ,

Just a theory, but my guess is that the channel is beholden to youtube/google and therefore any harsh criticism or demonizing the platform is being avoided?

rustyriffs , (edited )

Cocoon

Tiny Thor

Sea of Stars

El Paso elsewhere

Edit: Kena Bridge of Spirits

rustyriffs ,

Agreed, it’s really good. I thought I was done with JRPG’s. Generally, they’re too slow paced for me and I don’t have as much time as I used to. I’ve really enjoyed this one so far though.

One of the features that I like is how even though the combat is turn based, it still feels active because of the timed button presses for attacking and defending. It definitely gives the traditional gameplay mechanic a breath of fresh air.

rustyriffs ,

El Paso Elsewhere is quick fun, albeit, fatiguing for me personally. I’ve been playing it in bursts.

I’d say you just have to take it at face value, as far as story goes. It’s part of the charm though, that it’s kind of just… wacky?

The guns are pretty fun. They could’ve been better, sure, but they’re generally pretty good.

I think the music is where this game really shines though. The soundtrack is just kick ass. Well worth a play, even if it was only for the music. I’d go so far as to say I’d purchase the music separately.

rustyriffs ,

Action RPG’s are usually where it’s at for me.

rustyriffs ,

Bad corpos!

*slaps them on the wrist

rustyriffs ,

But it’s rhino liner. Isn’t that what it’s meant for?

People are so superficial.

rustyriffs ,

Someone should tell her about the fediverse

rustyriffs ,

I really appreciate it when the sidebar has links to related communities, websites, etc. Those are some of my favorite rabbit holes to go down.

rustyriffs ,

If you do, could you post a link to it? I’d enjoy watching something like that.

Something else that I think would be nice to see is just some of your everyday typical usecases with mint. Anything you might have run into that gave you trouble, etc.

rustyriffs ,

Could you recommend any good tutorials for setting up a bridge?

rustyriffs ,

Awesome!
