Is that screw supposed to be missing? It looks like the pad is just going to fall off.

Am I the only one that hates haptic triggers? Don’t mess with the force I need to push a button, keep it consistent!

Don’t mess with the force I need to push a button, keep it consistent! that's an implementation issue, not a device one the triggers are awesome in the games that use them well, annoying as poo poo when they're used for like, pulling the trigger in call of duty or whatever the haptic vibrations are the loving bomb, you can walk across a surface and feel it, feel raindrops, feel subtle shifts or vibrations in the games that merge it well, it seamlessly fits in with the audio and music and gameplay

i dunno about that but i had to learn an entirely new way of holding the 8bitdo compared to how i would hold a regular controller so i didn't keep clicking the flaps on the back, albeit they weren't bound to anything so it didn't matter much

This is one of the most deranged opinions I've ever heard. Obviously 3D melee focused games like Ninja Gaiden or Nioh or Dark Souls or anything where variable movement speed is important or whatever is better on controller. If you disagree with me you should be tried for crimes against humanity and since that's just my opinion no one's allowed to complain about it.

it's amazing how many analog stick enthusiasts believe that games have variable movement speeds when they don't. dark souls games just have walk, run, and sprint and you do the former and the latter with a button

the more common argument is that you have more than 8 directions of movement but the thing is when you can freely and accurately rotate the camera 100% of the time it's really easy to just set it so the direction you want to move in adheres to one of those 8 directions

I've never seen a game that had more than 3 different meaningful walk speeds, in which case just using 2 modifier keys like Shift and Ctrl works perfectly fine.

it is funny that all my life the one thing i would rather grab a controller to play than use a keyboard would be a fighting game and yet apparently that's the trendy way to do it these days, they just call them "hitboxes"

i think I saw a splinter cell game with really granular walk speeds and you changed it with the scroll wheel which was psychotic

hosed up if you fail a sequence because you were at 51% and not 49% walk
