my xbox controller (series era) doesn't need a battery when wired, and i don't have connection issues. but i wouldn't recommend it because i got really bad drifting just after the warranty expired (probably just bad luck).

woot has the wired 8bitdo ultimate for cheap, and everyone seems to love those

Edit: come to think of it got some PayPal email recently that was like "spend fifty bucks five times this month and we will give you 5 dollars."

believe it or not there could have been a worse timeline though, when they were talking about acquiring ironsource

AppLovin Corp. on Tuesday submitted a proposal to merge with Unity Software Inc. in an all-stock deal that values the videogame software company at about $20 billion.
John Riccitiello, chief executive of San Francisco-based Unity, would be CEO of the combined company, and Adam Foroughi, chief executive of AppLovin, would be operating chief.

That's a shame. Square Enix's recent smaller AA titles have been great.

Doubling down on big AAA hits after a couple of big budget flops seems very risky.

Edit: Or perhaps that's bullshit if the post above mine is correct.
that quote got taken out of context. he said they were diversifyng too much and spread themselves too thin, and said they needed to focus on bigger, traditional RPG titles, but he used, SaGa, as an example of something that was good.

what he means is that they wont be doing stuff like chocobo racing, babylon's fall, marvel's avengers, forspoken, etc. not that they'll only be cranking out AAA final fantasy games.

I watched a bit of his stream where he was trying to find the NPC that he voiced and lmao that he looks like that.

In other news I got Ace Combat 7 for like 80% off last night or so so I guess I can go straight into AC once I finish with AC, though I'll probably finish off Octopath 2 first.

https://mobilegamer.biz/unity-is-offering-a-runtime-fee-waiver-if-you-switch-to-levelplay-as-it-tries-to-kill-applovin/

Looks like one of the reasons for the new Unity fee is having it waived if you stop using AppLovin and use their poo poo.
This honestly doesn't make a lot of sense because they're already forcing anyone on ad mediation to use levelplay by October 1st. If you don't, your game doesn't show ads anymore.
Mind you, anyone still on their old ad code is still fine (for now) but a lot of people switched over when Unity very heavily indicated that turning on mediation (which you can't turn off) would make you way more money. (Spoiler: It doesn't.)

In summary, it actually makes little sense that the pricing change was done to force people into using levelplay; they were already doing that.
