And to think Gyro could become much more mainstream had it became a part of Xinput.
If all 3 console manufacturers had it, it’d alleviate the concern publishers have of having a cross-platform release with discrepant features, thus allowing more games to support it.

But no, of course they won’t do it. Jokes on me for expecting Microsoft to do anything remotely useful to the consumer.

It does work as a mouse by default. Valve calls it “Lizard Mode”, and you use the touchpad to move the cursor and the triggers to click.
But yeah I do agree they should have made standard buttons and sticks act as XInput and the touchpad as the mouse by default.

that being said, I fucking hate microsoft for stifling controller innovation with their antiquated ass xinput so i when i see a controller not support it i have to force myself to not think “god bless”

Correct. On top of that, the 8BitDo acts as a bog standard Xinput device without the need for Steam, so if you’re not a touchpad user there’s really no reason to get the Steam Controller over the 8BitDo.

I still don’t get the controversy.

Are you an avid Touchpad user on the Deck or on the OG Steam Controller? Buy this.
Do you just want a controller for your PC? Buy an Xbox, PS or Third party.

Fully and entirely correct.

Buy Guitar. Play Guitar Hero & Rock Band. Enjoy.
Buy Kinect. Play Dance Central. Enjoy.

I’m trying to decide if you’re a good person for allowing your wife to experience the game with no signposting or an evil person for allowing your wife to experience the game with no signposting

This is from March 13 and has been extensively posted and discussed already, dunno what’s the point of posting it again.

Also, after the backlash the Lutris author has changed his mind and is showing the Claude attribution again.

Trust me, the laughter comes from a place of pain 🥲

That’s really funny but also fuck you

Had to do a double take at that Lockscreen picture. Didn’t expect them to ape the Vita’s Software Design Language to such an extent 😅

All this to play PS4 Remasters on one and PC games on the other

I’ve been finishing up on EXAPUNKS myself lately. Man I love Zachtronics.

If Starfield didn’t murder everyone’s hope for their future titles I don’t know what will…

Looking forward to the day I boot up a new game and all the characters look like this because I don’t have DLSS 9 enabled

Huh? Haven’t they already been doing this the last decade plus? Did I travel back in time?

I use this one:

A bit worried about the MediaTek processor (because of Custom ROM support) but 5 Major Android upgrades sounds pretty decent.

Hmm, the footage from their Reveal Trailer looks a bit rough. For something aiming for a Fall release it looks rather early in development…

That’s gonna take a whopping 10 lines of userscript to defeat, hell I already had to use one to stop them from dropping the video quality when unfocused (so I could watch streams in PiP properly)

I suppose the Meta Quest headsets are still very well liked.
They can’t make people use their dogshit VRChat clone no matter what but the hardware itself is fine.

Well, anyone who gets these need to ensure they only buy physical games otherwise they’ll be left with a bunch of games they can’t do anything with at the end of their lease…

Look, I know Croteam had good reasons to do Talos Principle 2 in UE5 instead of the Serious Sam Engine but ouch owie oof my rx 580 🥲

At this point you might as well wait for the PS6 and the inevitable TLOU Complete Collection PS6 Edition

DLSS != GenAi

You can use Widgets with Niagara, though if you want to use multiple you need to create a “Widget Stack” and that’s a paid feature.
If you only want one tho, the free version works.

Well, it isn’t disinformation, it’s propaganda

I recall someone here on Lemmy emailing their support and they replied confirming it’s bootloader unlockable.
Graphene is unlikely because of their ultra tight security requirements (I really believe the only time we ever get a supported phone outside of the Pixel is when Graphene makes their own or partners directly with a OEM) but hey, most likely Lineage!

Yeah I clicked that “Fully Ramblomatic” review sincerely hoping the new Thief would be at least passable. Oh boy…

My six-year-old

Goddamn, we’re getting old aren’t we? 🥲

Idk, of all the ways you could criticize Ubisoft, dragging this random guy just because he didn’t care too much for HL2 (and then took the time to write down his thoughts instead just going “game bad 👎”) feels silly.

This feels a step above. Dysenterification?

Lmao the Steam Post has 0 likes

I mean, what is even there to play that you can’t play on Switch 1?
New Mario Kart? Donkey Kong whatever?
I’m sure they’re good games, I just don’t see someone who already owns a Switch buying a whole new system just for them

Tetris effect (not the game)

Not even Microsoft was putting Windows on their Surface Duo phones, I think we can safely say mobile Windows is dead…

TW: Potentially the dumbest comment I’ve ever read on Lemmy.

I suppose RTX Remix is what they’ll focus on going forward?

Feels like the best meta for console purchasing is to only buy every other gen. I imagine the Sw2 is a blast for someone who didn’t have the 1 and now gets to play all those games at an improved quality/framerate

damn near 2026 and new releases are still shipping with a 30hz target lmao
