It’s been a minute but i think i know what might be bugging you about the controls. If it’s the having to move and look with the same control, check the settings. There might be a way to adjust it.
As for other options…
-The Farming Simulator games are great for controller.

Looking on steam cross-referencing ‘casual’ and ‘good for steam deck’ is probably a good way to find some more.
Why? They did what every player has been wanting since MW2019 with the matchmaking, disbanding lobbies, and aim assist. That alone made the beta WAY more fun than ANY CoD game I’ve played since Cold War.
is this a bit or are you really this cringy? the game isn’t even out for a month, dipshit. and it’s gonna be the same overmonetized overmarketed bullshit we’ve been getting for years, with a placebo matchmaking change on top. simmer down.
Bro’s really self-reporting. The change for me was instant, I was actually getting a VTOL Warship almost every game, and NONE of my matches were “You are the carry, here’s 5 kids who never touched a controller while the enemy team has average players that curbstomp your short bus teammates”. Nor was I getting multiple bad matches in a row after a string of good matches. If you thought literally nothing changed then I’m sorry but you’re just actual fucking trash and were being protected by the matchmaking.
If I was getting paid by Activision I wouldn’t be doing this on Lemmy of all places lmao, and I wouldn’t like to take money from them anyway cause they’d probably force me to not talk shit about the game. But I genuinely think just the matchmaking change completely transformed the game. Before the open playlist came out, I was not hyped for it at all, but after that it actually made me look forward to the game. But if you think it’s literally the same matchmaking… Then I don’t know how to tell you you’re just not that guy.
not that guy who pays $70 a year to play the same game over and over again?
you’ve literally only played the open beta. it will take maybe two weeks for anyone who’s not sweaty as fuck to abandon the sweaty as fuck playlist lmao.
‘i can’t be a marketing goon, i’m on an unpopular platform’ durrr as if that’s not how this shit started on reddit too. if it walks like a stooge and quacks like a stooge i’m gonna call it out as a stooge, or why would you be simping for an UNRELEASED GAME?
Well, for one, the playlist is becoming the default matchmaking for all modes, so I suppose you’d not have fun regardless with your massive skill issue. Also, I don’t buy CoD every year, sometimes I skip them, and I didn’t even buy BO6 because I had PC Game Pass with Microsoft Rewards… until Microsoft ruined both, that is. And third, do you also make fun of Counter-Strike players for essentially playing the same game, on the exact same maps, for 26 fucking years? I do know CS2 is free but the fact of the matter is that it’s the same exact game at its core since 1.6.
counterstrike doesn’t sell a new copy every year with the same gameplay but more in-game ads lol. everything i’ve seen shows it’s gotten 10x worse since mw2019 and that was enough to make me sick. you cannot respect yourself and play a premium priced game that is so blatant about milking you it shows you commercials in between maps.
you keep trying to talk shit about how good i am at a game i don’t play and i’ll keep laughing at the middle school tier negging. you’re so awesome though, well done!
I’m not doing research for you, boy. If you took any time to actually look up you’d know that most of the bad shit that happens is exaggerated or was removed later. And also, if you think you’re having any effect here, consider the following: I’m 31 and I don’t care.
you’re 31 and you think “you suck at cod” is a sick burn lmao
i literally watched my friend get a battle pass ad and a bo7 ad in between streaming rounds of zombies on bo6 that she had to sit through - unless she clicked buy now! so unless actimicrovisionsoft had a come to jesus moment in the last 2 weeks don’t you fucking try to act like it’s not currently a shitshow and on a downward trend.
yep keep digging your heels in and carrying water for the trillion dollar corporation that will surely beat the shill allegations 👍
Palia. It’s free on Xbox and PlayStation. Has in game purchases but I’ve never bought one. My fiancee started playing it recently and ask me to play. You can grow a farm, it’s 3D, get a glider, run around and do missions. (MMO) Play with others and get bonuses in XP. I’m only about 3 hrs gameplay so far. It’s cross platform because she plays Xbox, so if that helps… idk
Edit: also fishing, chopping wood, story lines idk. It’s worth checking out if you have time/access.
Edit 2: my fiance wanted me to say they have a Halloween event going on right now, and they have gatherings/events to encourage people to meet each other and team up and help each other grow
I’ve literally only ever played it with controller, except for about fifteen minutes with mouse and keyboard.
Hundreds of hours on the Switch, and now over a hundred hours on the Steam Deck (holy shit mods, even just QoL ones and being able to zoom out farther, make the game so much better).
What specifically do you have a hard time doing using controller? I know placing fences can be a big pain, but that’s pretty much it in my experience.
I have only ever played Stardew with a controller so I’m just wondering in what way is it not good? Because for some menus the right stick is emulating a mouse? Or targeting things?
May I suggest turning the always face target (or whatever it’s called) option on? It makes a big difference in how using tools works with a controller.
I like to play crusader kings II from the point of view of God. Using console commands, sketchy cheat mod, and knowing the right game mechanics you can make characters do all types of crazy stuff. Using the “observe” console command let’s you play as a spectator, you can use the “play” command followed by a character ID and you will jump into playing as that character. I like to find a character, give them insane stats, and give them all of the best traits, make them immortal and then spectate for a few hundred years and see what my chosen one made the world into. I also like to try to determine before hand what I want them to do, like becoming emperor of brittania or whatever, and see how close I can get from just 1 or 2 interactions with them.
I’ve done this a few times in different Civilizations games to see how the computer would react to things like an abundance of gold or over powered for the current turn units.
A lot of the time it was underwhelming with them not really utilizing what was given to them or switching up their strategy. With gold they wouldn’t buy units or tiles and would still demand gold during trades or for peace for example.
Sorry for necroposting, but OP linked your reply in a recent post and I wanted to directly respond to it.
You might enjoy The Ellimist Chronicles, a companion book to the Animorphs series. The novel’s protagonist has a similar interest in getting things done with the minimum of direct intervention.
The Pokemon game that locked features and Pokemon behind paid DLC released alongside the game revitalized the franchise? Fuck that. I’ve bought every Pokemon game since Red and every console to play them on, but it’ll be a cold day in hell before I give them more money when they’re just going to use to sue smaller developers and while letting fascists co-opt their music and imagery.
I don’t think a Switch 2 emulator will come out any time soon, but I do respect the hustle. I myself am probably only gonna get anything Switch/Switch 2 related from resellers and/or used.
It’s already available, has been for a week or so. I don’t think the Switch 2 version is different enough to really matter; obviously, if you’re buying it and have a Switch 2, you’re going to want the extra performance, but if you don’t have a Switch 2 or are otherwise acquiring it, might as well just get the Switch 1 version.
PLA is definitely the better Legends game. PLZA is absurdly dialogue-heavy for a game that doesn’t have well-written dialogue, and they took out the damned Linking Cord, one of the best parts of PLA.
Also, there are scores of dialogue options, and the only ones that matter are your name and a handful of “are you ready to battle” ones; most have two options that mean exactly the same thing.
To be fair the “DLC” isn’t actually available until 2026, what they have released now is basically a pre-order, still scummy but not as bad as you’re implying. Edit:for clarity, they didn’t cut anything out of the game, they just have a pre-order for the DLC.
If before you’ve even finished a project you’ve already decided part of it won’t be included in the original project unless the user pays extra, that’s the definition of scummy.
