I read every word. 😉
But yeah, it just goes to show that the mass production vs caring and dedicated production really are playing in different leagues altogether. Mass produced stuff is just shit no matter how expensive, and this controller-centric company blows the big dogs out of the water for a third, quarter, eighth of the price!
Anyway, I hope you get more free time for yourself soon, so you can enjoy it more. 😌

I’m super pleased with it, rock solid performance. Very snappy input lag as well, not even detectable, and I play games that require very precise timing on inputs.
Wish I could disagree with you on the durability of the premium controllers from Xbox. So bad. I got the Elite 2 like I said, but I exchanged it for a new one literally an amount of times that I can’t even remember, and it took place over almost a year. The issue was with its sticks. They were either drifting or had some kind of gap where the stick wouldn’t sit still in its socket. Both left and right sticks, or one or the other.
Eventually I had enough and settled on one that had very little of the issue, on the left stick (less used), because I just wanted to freaking play my games because I was without a controller all the time sending them back.
8Bit? Third of the price, first controller sent to me was flawless.
I’m not experiencing an issue with charging though. In what way do you notice that it doesn’t charge fully? The charge light never switches off?

Exactly, bringing in all the feces and dirt and gravel and everything else from outside in the streets. So nasty. Like okay, if you live your life in your shoes and you take them off only to shower and sleep, even that is… workable, if that suits you. I don’t understand it, but fine. But laying your shoes on your bed? 🤮

As such, the thing that turned me off initially about the G-Rebels demo is that I can see all the way to the horizon. I’m not sure how I feel about it being so bright, either - rather than a sun-starved Jovian moon, the new game is set on Earth, albeit a dystopian Earth where most people live in floating megacities.
How picky can you get. Not even an explanation as to why these things would be negative aspects. Just stated as such.

☺️👍👍
We usually got the shotguns and went for close combat kills, or M4 due to its relatively low spread. Or one person hanging back a little too snipe away special infected that trap the other survivors. Until we all find AKs with laser sights. Those were just OP 😅 Everything after that is just a one tap on the head lol.

Love these games. I remember back in the day me and three buddies used to play through both L4D games on expert mode. So satisfying to make it to the end.
But playing it these days, there is too much buggy behavior with the common infected to make it fun for me, and the recoil bullet spread/hit detection is so random. Like sometimes my whole entire crosshair could be visually completely inside the head of a zombie, and I shoot multiple times, but no hit. It’s insane.
Still, the nostalgia is strong here for me. 😊
I’m… I’m not bragging though? It’s just another situation/combination, like I said. And it’s been years now since I bought the 3D All Stars games, over time this doesn’t amount to a lot of money per year, or especially per month. My kids play all the time. The games have almost paid for themselves. 🥰 Watching them experience what I did when I was a kid. It’s been great.
Are people angry that I somehow “wasted” my money? I don’t get it.
I should play this. I bought it, after all.
