- Comment on Favourite controllers 1 week ago:
So my sticks still work, but I’ve worn down the rubber on two of the left joysticks so much its crumbling apart. Purchased in 2021 and was my main driver until that happened. Used that opportunity to try out the PS5 controller and the new Xbox series ones.
And I mean… they’re good?
The resistive triggers were cool and the touchpad is really customizeable. Xbox controller stays solid but boring.
Switch Pro controller feels great buy weird to be playing PC games with. Nothing WRONG with it, just feels mentally disconnecting for some reason lol.
Idk. For me the Pro 2 and the wireless SNES sized 8bitdo controllers are perfectly comfy. Have an ultimate in its way to me now actually.

8bitdo Pro 2. I LOVE me some 2D platformers, and the D-pad is absolutely amazing for me. I think I have 4 in total now, two wired two wireless?
Only problem is the sticks wear out, but they sell replacements! So no tossing the whole controller :D

Yeah, it felt nice to play, but after dumping 8 hours into it two weeks ago I can’t even remember what a single enemy looks like.

That is SO fucking cool.
The Shadow of Morodor games are pretty good turn your brain off action games. But the tech behind it always blew my mind.
(Slight spoilers)
Like when you unlock the drake in the sequal and can fly over all the orc architecture or mountains, see anything that looks interesting and divebomb in. And it retains so much detail and fluidity during these transitions of gameplay and travel. I literally said last week that Shadow of Morodor is the best superhero game around, mainly because they truly capture that feeling of raw power and freedom.
I guess this is why it kinda has that feel!
- Comment on What are some games you find yourself frequently coming back to? 1 month ago:
Thanks for taking the time to reply. The tutorial sections did absolutely put me off the first time, but I saw flashes of brilliance after I got over that hump. Definitely gonna give it another go after the Helldivers rush wears off.

Man I WANT to love Horizon. It seems exactly like my type of game. But everytime I play it everything feels… insincere? Idk something about it doesnt hit. Still paid for it day one when it came to PC though to support the cross platform Sony initiative.
- Comment on Pokémon Co. Is Now DMCAing Years Old Videos Showing Pokémon Modded Into Other Games 1 month ago:
Actually, I don’t think so. Thats why Nintendo shits on a bunch of fan ports and remake projects.
- Comment on Pokémon Co. Is Now DMCAing Years Old Videos Showing Pokémon Modded Into Other Games 1 month ago:
Fair use is such a fickle thing. It isn’t the catch all that people want.
Without express permission from Nintendo, including Pokemon in a mod is copyright infringement.
Is it transformative? Thats extremely case by case, but Nintendo would make the arguement that mods can act as a market subsitute for their own product (like the guys putting pokemon into palworld).
IANAL, this is all just my opinion.

Would love some Lemmy input on this as well
- Comment on Pokémon Co. Is Now DMCAing Years Old Videos Showing Pokémon Modded Into Other Games 1 month ago:
But the Pokémon themselves are IP of Nintendo at the moment, so their inclusion is technically copyright infringement no?

First Bigmode release right? Interesed to check this out, decent enough trailer!
- Comment on Several indie studios tease the "iii initiative", including Darkest Dungeon/Slay the Spire/Vampire Survivors devs 2 months ago:
On pure speculation, it seems like iii could be a parallel to AAA. Maybe some sort of indie cooperation initiative?
