One of the best sources of advertising is people posting about how fun your game is on social media. It's not going to hurt their revenue from gta v but it might affect their next games.

Hi there, would you like to try some spicy products?
Euro Truck Simulator 2 is disappointing, because' it's not German enough. Way too many ways to gently caress around with the game mechanics, and traffic offenses don't stay on my record...they're never gonna take my license this way. :colbert:

Decided to breeze across the country side some, found a really long and steep switchback, so I naturally took a shortcut straight down, made it with only 48% damage to the truck. Got fined repeatedly for speeding in the Netherlands, didn't realize it was because a cop was riding in my blindspot, so I opted to gently push him off the road and just eat the one-time vehicle accident fine of 260, instead of repeated 200-buck-speeding fines.

Waltzed through Belgium at 151km/h, but crashed into a toll-gate full-speed. Drove off the Dover dock for the first time, ramped up to my casual 140km/h with a 20t pressure tank in the back, forgot the island monkeys drive on the left, hit a tour bus head-on, totaled my poo poo.

I can't be allowed to get away with this, WHAT OF THE RULES, WHERE ARE THE AUTHORITIES ON THIS>?

Driveclub VR is also apparently on clearance for like 20 bucks at Target right now.

Get Dirt Rally first, but I think I'm gonna grab me a cheap copy of Driveclub this weekend.

Driveclub is a seriously fantastic racing game.

Yeah, I own regular Driveclub and it's pretty awesome.

The VR version isn't the same and sadly you need to purchase it to play the game in VR mode. Wish it was like Dirt Rally, but alas.

The 360 controller is quite possibly the best gamepad ever designed.

The Playstation controllers, on the other hand... I don't know what the gently caress they were thinking and how they continue to be so awful. Do Japanese engineers just have really tiny, weak hands or something? Mind-blowingly uncomfortable, twitchy, and terrible feedback.

Yes they do have tiny weak hands. If you go to Japan as an American you will feel like a goddamn giant, because the average Japanese dude is like 5ft8in tall, you're literally head and shoulders taller than them.

I prefer the Xbox design but the ps4 controller is pretty alright. The PS3 one is atrocious

PS4 controller/DS4 works pretty great on PC. Maybe not as seamless as a 360 controller

Do Xbox one controllers work seamlessly on PC? I think they're pretty comfortable 🤷🏽‍♀️

You can run them with a USB cable or buy the wireless adaptor for $30.

Either way, they're recognized by pretty much every game I've played with them.

Have you tried loading some of the controller setups that other people have made? The default controller is kinda janky, and lots of people are willing to sink the time it takes to get their steam controller set up and then share it.

I've always preferred PS to Xbox controllers. :shrug: The 360s weren't bad though. Haven't used the Xbone's controller much.

Apparently the devs were aware that had they released in August as scheduled, it would've been pretty lovely. At least they've got the awareness to admit their product wasn't up to snuff compared to other developers :shobon: I was bummed out but poo poo if it means the game is just that much better, there's other things to play in the meantime.

I'm the other way around. Never hit the share button, but the way I hold the DS4 causes me to occasionally brush the touchpad and mess up what I want to do.
