My current focus:

  • hall effect sensor to avoid stick drift
  • i prefer the xbox layout for sticks
  • abxy button layout, because not all pc games support ps buttons
  • cabel, cuz lighter and no sudden loss of input

Never buy a PS4/5 or switch controller they are all overpriced garbage they intentionally make for ewaste landfills in 2-4 years.

I really like my gulikit king Kong 2 and they made a elite controller style one with the 3rd version so I’d recommend that. They’re hall effect joysticks which feel real nice and are easy to repair and customize.

Summzashi,

Using my dual shock 4 controller since 2013 on PC but sure buddy

giantofthenorth,

You’re right, Im attacking you directly

Unrelated to the actual question but related to the title: Check if the controller fits your hand size. For example, I don’t like the Xbox controller and much prefer the ps4 ones since they fit in my small hands better.

nickiwest,

This.

My husband swears by his Nintendo Pro controller, but he also has historically liked Xbox controllers.

Those options are too large to be comfortable in my hands, so I tend to go for undocked JoyCons and PlayStation controllers because they are better fits for me.

I use a PS4 controller for PC gaming. I definitely wouldn’t buy a specific controller for my PC without actually holding a sample in my hands first.

Pro tip: Buy silicone ergonomic grips for your joycons, they’ll stay small but your palms will be able to rest on them instead of floating in the air

Have some experience with Xbox controllers and steam controller

First official Xbox One X controller is absolute shit via bluetooth. Proprietary dongle works well, as long as its on windows - getting it to work under linux is a pain.

As far as compatibility goes Xbox 360 Dualshock with 2,4ghz wireless dongle is the best - dongle identifies as wired controller, it works correctly with everything.

Steam controller works with everything except ergonomics is IMO garbage. Dualshock rules in this area

And don't even think about connecting anything via bluetooth to android - bluetooth drivers are broken since android 10, causing massive input lag. Use either wired, or Xbox 360 2,4ghz wireless dongle controller

Steam Controller's ergo is great for me. It's absolutely fucking weird compared to anything else, but I like larger grips on controllers since I have long fingers.

NocturnalMorning, do games w rdr2 question

Yes, the game gets much better. If you want something totally “open world” there’s an online game mode too.

Shard,

Too bad RDR2 online is dead and abandoned by the devs

NocturnalMorning,

Yeah, I tried it for the first time the other day, seemed a little too open. I wasn’t even sure what I was supposed to do. Encountered one single player in the hour I was online playing it.

I'm two missions away from the end in Alien: Isolation. This weirdly enough has been one of the most difficult playthroughs that I've done of this game. I accidentally soft locked myself while in the reactor area and spent waaay too much time in that area. But I'm finally passed it, so I hope things go a little smoother to the end.

I loved the atmosphere and general gameplay, but HATED how they reused so many of the areas, some multiple times.

I hope we get another one someday, but with more work put into the level design.

schamppu, (edited ) do games w I'm the developer of WalkScape, the RuneScape inspired fitness MMORPG where you progress by walking IRL. We're now accepting more people to the Closed Beta!

I created an official community for the game here on Lemmy !walkscape after many people asked for it. For official development blogs, I still recommend to check WalkScape Portal as I can’t promise we can post them here as well. But we’ll see!

I dont have Google play store. Can I still join?

schamppu,

As far as I know, it’s possible somehow. We currently don’t have enough resources to manage additional release pipelines, so it’s definitely tricky at the moment.

UnbalancedFox,

I understand. I mean, i can get the apk but if it requires Google Account for activation then it wont work on degoogled phones.

schamppu,

Recording API is local only and doesn’t require a Google account

UnbalancedFox,

Thanks! So I pay a tier and gett aceess? 😁

schamppu,

For immediate access that’s the way, or you can also apply for the closed beta for free

Tellore, do games w What are your opionions on fortnite?

I enjoyed it like 3-5 years ago, but since then it shifted significantly towards kids and that was probably a morally respectable move given how many kids are playing but I don’t like it anymore. Graphics is top-notch, don’t confuse your subjective dislike of the style with it being unfinished or underdeveloped.

@RebekahWSD@lemmy.world avatar

Well, I’m trying! Thanks for allowing me in. I doubt my almost sedentary life is going to level fast!

Is there a lemmy community for the game?

schamppu,

No problem, and glad to have you! No official lemmy community, but you can check our Discord or WalkScape Portal for now ❤️

I really wish we had one.

schamppu,

I changed my mind, and created one here: !walkscape

RebekahWSD,
@RebekahWSD@lemmy.world avatar

Sweet! Lemme go…follow? I forget what it’s called here.

schamppu,

Lemmify my community? :D

OtherPetard,

Hi there Schamppu, I can’t find any community related te Walkscape that I can follow…

Could you log out and check if your community is discoverable?

schamppu,

Plenty of people have joined it, so it sure should be discoverable!

OtherPetard,

No idea what happened, but now I’ve subscribed too. Thanks for creating walk cape in any case

schamppu,

I created one actually, here: !walkscape

JigglySackles, (edited ) do games w I'm the developer of WalkScape, the RuneScape inspired fitness MMORPG where you progress by walking IRL. We're now accepting more people to the Closed Beta!

Any chance I could get in on the beta? I have some health concerns that has docs telling me I need to go for walks and I’ve had a hard time staying focused on it. (Applied in the portal )

Edit: if it doesn’t happen, hopefully it is released soon. Also walkscape.app/home gives a 404. Removing the home seems to work out fine though

schamppu,

We’re accepting more people throughout the wave, and there’s a good chance to get invited still (the wave ends on Oct 6th)!

Thanks for letting me know, the redirect link likely has some old stuff in it, and that page should direct without /home. Will be fixing it!

I haven’t gotten into the Beta, so I haven’t played it, but I’m curious, is the game designed so you can’t do anything without walking, or is it so that you can creep along at a snail’s pace without walking but to actually make real progress you have to walk?

It seems to me like you could use the psychology of a Pay To Win / Microtransactions game to motivate people but by using walking instead of money.

schamppu,

There’s no progress without walking, all of the progress is tied to steps.
