I've been using an Xbox One controller myself. All you need for that is a cord with the appropriate ends to plug the controller in. As far as drift goes, I haven't had that issue with my controllers yet, though I did have to re-calibrate my Switch Joycons recently, so maybe look into seeing if there is a way to re-calibrate your ps4 controller on PC before cracking it open or buying a new controller.

Nah, sticks are still perfectly alright on normal. But when I move the sticks, it can tend to go for longer than intended or move a bit no where I want to until I counter it, so I'm pretty sure there must be dirt fucking with my inputs there.

Soooo, question Who here use a controller for PC?

I am using a PS4 controller, but it started to drift and that is getting annoying. I mean, I COULD open it up and try cleaning it, but I do wonder what are good options in the event I fuck it up, just in case. If you have somethign to recommend, I am all ears.

Also, for the record, I would prefer a wired controller for this.

That's usually on the game, not Steam.

I use the PS4 controller for my PC, but I got a gulikit for my Switch that I can swap in if I need to.

This is the same one I use. My only real issues with it are the feel. The steep lip where the triggers are makes it feel bulky and hard to find a comfortable grip, and the trigger themselves have a lot more resistance on them than I'm used to. I like the controller otherwise.

I've been using a wired 360 controller for the last 13 years. It still works great.
 
...So I'm playing Vampire Survivor on my phone. Been farming the Dairy Factory - or whatever it's called- for various unlocks, mostly to kill the 3k Milk Elementals you need to unlock one of the characters. Just did a run with the guy who starts with the bible weapon to unlock the Arcana for getting him to 80, and managed to finally get six enhanced weapons at once. I thought I was going to finish the Milk Elementals this run too, after quite a few.

Didn't. Let's check the bestiary, how many more do I need? 100 or so?

Milk Elementals killed: 2,999

Heroes of Might and Magic: Olden Era announced for 2025.

We'll see how it goes, but trailer looked a lot like gameplay of 3 and 5 with newer graphics and it's not done by Ubisoft, but team who worked on Iridius lord of dead.

Sounds about right for Vampire Survivors. Good game though. Lots of entertaining references, especially for a Castlevania fan.
 
Langrisser Gacha is having a collab

The series? CAPTAIN COMMANDO

It gets a genuine what the actual fuck from me
 
Both Langrisser and Captain Commando are early 1990s games. So it is a collab to hit the childhoods of both these demographics.
 
I mean I am glad as fuck Commando is getting recognized and getting into things, beyond being a costume for Guile and a UMVC3 Mod

So, huh, thanks for the advice... But now I find out it's way too bulky for me, jeez. I know it's bigger than a PS4 controller to begin with and some changes in feels are expected, but jeez. Guess I'll be returning it and try something else.

In more Snowbreak news, I decided to take a look at the first bit of the new chapter (I think I mentioned it before, but the game lets you access the newest chapter to come out even if you haven't probably reached it in the story). First section is of course cutscenes...all I'm gonna say on the matter is that I was sold when the first lines of dialogue were a reference to Chekov's Gun of all things. These madlads at Seasun are marketing to me and I love it.
 
You know, in a JRPG when you unleash a big move on a boss, and it's just more HP damage, fight goes on? How disappointing it is when a normal attack while recharging MP or whatever is the final blow?

And how satisfying it is when the same big move is the killing blow?

Just took out Stormcaller in Sea of Stars. Decided to blow all three Live Mana on a poison backstab on a whim and it finished him off. Very satisfying.
 
Some games do split the difference by ending boss fights once enough damage has been done, then go into a appropriately epic cutscene/sequence to finish the fight... or just make you either use a specific attack or a special command, but those still lead to what's effectively the same thing as just starting a cutscene.
 
A Question.
One can make a Rimworld thread here? What would be the appropriate subforum?
 
Sorry I am looking for the title for a jrpg can i ask for it here?

It have a historical japan setting about a family cursed with short life and it sholud be about passing stat or trait to future generetions. Kinda like ck2.
It sholud Be... 10 years old? Not sure about that. But the title sholud be in japanese.
 
Unsurprisingly Gearbox fucked up the Risk of Rain 2 DLC update. I can forgive the useless items, but the amount of glitches they've introduced by unifying the code base across all versions has created some really weird bugs and completely broken modding. Like, modders looked at the new code and said it's basically impossible to mod on. List of glitches includes but is not limited to: Enemies have no attack cooldown if you set FPS to unlimited, no visual or sound cues when taking damage, some characters skills are now broken and unusable, the new local multiplayer has a chance to wipe your save data, The final boss can just randomly become invincible, The final boss can make one of your skills unusable during his final stage, and they reintroduced an old bug where chests could toss items off the map.

I knew Gearbox would cause some issues, they did in the last update, but I wasn't expecting it to be this bad. For every existing bug they fixed they introduced 3 more. The game is borderline unplayable.
