Difficult for me to recommend since they're discontinued and likely pricey, but I still use a Steam Controller daily and find that with thorough bindings it can handle a surprising amount of PC only games, so I'd personally recommend that if it can be had at a fair price.

Zerthax,

Steam controller is fantastic, and unfortunately there’s really nothing else like it. I normally use a Logitech trackball, so the ability to use a touchpad like a trackball works well for me. I can’t think of any other controllers that use this instead of analog sticks.

I’ve actually stockpiled a few spares because I’m not sure what I would use as a replacement.

Same, I used one forever, wore the joystick down to the hard plastic underneath and it eventually ceased to turn on, I ended up incredibly lucky, some random redditor said he bought one that he never used and actually sent it to me free of charge and I still randomly go on steam and just thank the guy for letting me continue to use this controller.

I really hope they eventually release another or something

variants,

Do they make like TouchPad protectors that you can swap out?

@all-knight-party@kbin.run avatar

I do believe there are touch pad covers you can get, for me though the joystick is what wore down, so I have an extra rubber cap over the top now

brian,

Mine has just started to have problems with the steam button and the right stick not registering presses. There really aren’t alternatives and I’m devastated. Probably going to have to buy used ones off ebay if I can’t fix it.

I'm hoping it's something like opening it up and cleaning it out, I'm wishing you luck on that one, if mine died it'd be like an end of an era

I use this Corsair lapboard on the couch. Much less exotic 😂 Unfortunately, it still requires two hands.

I need something like this. How do you like it?

mySFWaccount,

I like it a lot. It’s a nice sized keyboard, and the mouse surface is also more than big enough. I actually don’t even take the keyboard out, and just use the entire thing everyday.

variants,

Where do you store it when it’s not in use?

mySFWaccount,

I just keep the entire thing on my desk, like I wouldn’t normal keyboard.

Great Ace Attorney Chronicles.

Only finished the first game and really enjoyed it. Eager to see where the second goes.

Localisation team’s done a fucking fantastic job as well. Didn’t expect to see that much rhyming slang in an Ace Attorney game, although looking back at the wackiness of the series and the ridiculous puns, I probably should have anticipated it.

For a long time I’ve thought we just need a left hand joystick to pair with mouse. Could still have a thumb hat too. It would probably break my brain trying to mix all the different muscle memory maps though.

variants,

Yeah the thumb stick is what sold me on that azeron but now I’m wondering what my fingers are going to do if they aren’t on w a s d at least for fsrthest frontier it’s mostly wasd and mouse clicking so I guess I’ll just now use all the shortcut keys instead of moving the mouse to the build buttons and all that all the time

Got back into Elite Dangerous big time. Gathered the courage to go to Colonia finally! The journey wasn’t as bad as I expected. Spread it out over two days and it’s very doable! I’ll stick around the Colonia region for a bit and then its on to Sag A*

What did you use to get there? My longest range ship is still a Viper mkIV I engineered for small worlds 2 at 35ly.

I’m running my trusty ASP Explorer, engineered to a max jump range of about 65ly.

I’m pretty sure you can make the journey with less jump range, but the more you have, the more comfortable it will be. Just be sure to take as many neutron stars along the way as you can! 😁

Almost beaten Mars After Midnight, it’s a great little game!

I’ve also been playing the SW Battlefront rerelease on switch!

  • I like 1 more than 2, 2 has way too many people rolling and I like the maps from 1 more
  • 1 is also less balanced. I got 30 kills camping next to a gonk droid and recon droning orbital strikes over and over
  • There’s not many players, the most I’ve played with on one map is 20
  • Multiplayer crashes are annoying but otherwise I’ve been enjoying it
  • Galactic Conquest is as good as ever
Illustrious_Luck5514, do games w What's your favorite game that you will NEVER finish?

A mod, not a game, but Terrafirmacraft.

I deeply love every part of it, except the ore prospecting system. I always use commands to find my first copper vein because I find it so grindy otherwise. Doesn’t help that the vast majority of TFC’s progression is locked behind copper.

So I guess technically I’ll probably never complete the game legit.

@simple@lemmy.world avatar

The same devs went on to make Vintage Story and finding copper there can also be a real pain. It’s kind of wild to hear their Minecraft mod having the same issue.

Did you find the answer?

Just got Scarlet Nexus cuz it was on sale on Steam. So far it seems pretty interesting, tho I kind of suck at the combat lmao.

I played it a year ago, and it was fun (playing as the male MC), but the side quests are complete ass, so I definitely recommend skipping them.

Arma 3 and Cyberpunk 2077, mixed in with some Ultrakill, Elite Dangerous and Voices of the Void. Got my whole range of games.

I am playing Monkey Island, Balatro and Cyber Hook. I don’t think I need to introduce Monkey Island, so a bit about the other two.

Balatro is a card game, where you have to play pokerhands to reach increasingly higher scores. You can upgrade cards, get special effects and comboa going, all centered around the basic poker hands (pairs, flush, full house etc.) It is really fun for now, but I am not sure how long it will keep me.

Cyber Hook is a fast paced 3D platformer. Basically you are Spider Man, trying get through a level as fast as you can, swinging from structure to structure, running, jumping etc. It is inexpensive, bought it for ~2€ and it has a good set of mechanichs to make it not too complex but gives you a lot of possibilities to finish a level.

Been really into call of duty unexpectedly after about a decade away, so I’ve been playing warzone with my friends. In my solo time, I’ve been inching my way through broken reality, it’s a really great game with vaporwave/ retro aesthetics.
