morphballganon, (edited ) w New Nintendo patent suggests Switch 2 may solve joycon drift

It would be 100% possible for game devs to include an option to mitigate drift (require the stick to be pushed at least ~x% to move at all, adjustable anywhere from 10 for slight drift to 50 for extreme cases). Haven’t seen the slightest effort nor heard a peep on that.

Bunch of people in the replies seemingly never tried to play puzzle games with drift and have no idea how much trouble it can cause. Do the puzzles in The Last Campfire with joycon drift and let me know how it goes.

PM_ME_FEET_PICS,

That’s not a valid option. 50% is terrible for joystick dead zone and is considered poor quality.

fartsparkles,

As a Steam Deck user, even the thought of a 50% dead zone makes me nauseous.

morphballganon,

It wouldn’t be the default, obviously… did you read the first part of my post?

priapus,

It makes way more sense for that to be an OS level option, not per game. It also makes even more sense to have hall effect joysticks and avoid the problem entirely.

bulgogi,

You might as well be using a d-pad at that point

Or use Hall Effect sticks and have no deadzone at all

Wouldn’t solve it, drift can affect regular joystick operation as well, where pushing it all the way to the side could show up as it being stuck in the middle.

Now just make it compatible with 5G cellular network and we’re back in the 90’s.

Fucking finally. Still have to see if they actually go through with it.

kiranraine,

Seriously…idk why they are so…obtuse to fixing shiz sometimes. Granted we are talking about the same company that won’t embrace fan work the same as Sega so they’re kinda backwards imo. Esp since that stuff usually isn’t making money or is free promo for the real shiz Ala streaming and reviews. They’re not very smart imo on a lot of things and seem to punish fans for having fun with shiz too much…

Nintendo is absolutely one of those companies that has been breathing its own farts for too long.

A part of me is worried that they will patent this, and then just sit on the tech forever, and kill hall-effect joysticks for good.

kiranraine,

I mean I doubt it. Hall effects have been on the market for ages(notably the dreamcast as a few other comments reminded me). They can’t possibly stop hall effects and mods that allow them at this point XD

WarmSoda,

The title of this post and article literally say they patented it.

vonbaronhans,

You can patent a specific implementation of a technology, but not usually the principles behind that tech. Nintendo had patented this, too, but that likely has little to no effect on other hall effect joystick manufacturers.

$35 Early Access with unfinished story but polished cash shop really shows you where the devs priorities are.

MonkCanatella,

Give it a try on the high seas. I did and I ended up buying it because it really is that good. I never interacted with a cash shop in my entire time playing

fushuan,

… On the story. Their priority is the story. The cash shop is quite recent and the time it takes to develop isn’t even in the same universe as story content. Story content requires developing new zones, new enemy types, voice acting… They spent tons of time developing multiplayer, that’s a huge undertaking by itself where they are improving constantly. They just reworked some quests and remade the tylesets of some campaign zones. Developing the cash shop can’t have been more than 5% of the time they spent developing last year.

Either you don’t know about development in general, you are blinded by rage with the drama they had with the release of the cash shop (which they reworked) or you are being malicious. I’m guessing 1 or 2.

yuri,

I’ve seen early access games that go their entire dev cycle without adding real-cash shops. this pervasive idea that microtransactions are just an acceptable thing in any new game has me absolutely incredulated.

it doesn’t matter how long it takes to develop, putting a cash shop in an unfinished game is a bad move optics wise.

fushuan,

it doesn’t matter how long it takes to develop, putting a cash shop in an unfinished game is a bad move optics wise.

Sure, but the game already has content enough to be a good single player experience for 35€ so w/e.

PM_ME_FEET_PICS,

It’s also lacking. I come back every few updates but the game isn’t very good. It’s no Torchlight 2 or Grim Dawn.

From what I’ve heard Last Epoch is a good game, but you’re not really doing it any favors by saying “made by redditors”.

manapropos,

That bit makes me think the game is chock full of millenial writing

conciselyverbose,

Holy shit that borderlands 3 "turn the generator on" quote nails why I struggle to push through for the really fun gunplay half the time. They really do just vomit words at you.

GrayBackgroundMusic,

That was amazing. Thank you for linking it.

MonkCanatella,

It’s so funny how people who have no idea about linguistics/communications have such strong know-it-all attitudes about how people communicate. Remember the phenomenon of vocal fry? All the youtube vids like “i discovered this thing that millennial wimmin do and once you notice you’ll HATE IT.” and they just describe vocal fry which is just an absolutely normal part of speech and done by men just as much as women.

atlasraven31, w AMD Phoenix-Powered PC Handheld With RGB Keyboard Is a Step Closer to Launch

Begun, the handheld wars have.

refurbishedrefurbisher,

I’m all for it. It’d be nice if they didn’t preinstall Windows, though.

bingbong,

Steam really needs to make steamOS public

refurbishedrefurbisher,

Basically everything outside of Steam itself is open source. The only problem is distributing a device with Steam preinstalled, as that requires distribution rights from Valve.

bingbong,

I think that’s part of the issue. It would be cool to have an easily available ISO, and partnerships with manufacturers, like they did back in the steam machine days. That might make it more likely that we see handhelds without windows preinstalled.

fosforus,

It is.
