Not having the touchpads is a big downside, but this still fills a huge niche that the others dont. My Xbox elite controller is cool and all, but has neither a gyro nor capacitive joysticks. My dualsense has a gyro, but no capacitive touch so I need to activate it with a button hold or leave it always on.

The Xbox and PS5 controller also don’t treat the paddles as independent buttons by default, so you need an extra layer of software on PC that allows mapping those buttons to arbitrary inputs. Steam Input can overwrite this sometimes, but it’s very inconsistent on a game + hardware basis. The companion app is a concerning “feature”. Hopefully it’s just marketing trying to make up a fancy phrase for “hardware driver”.

I did a project for school a few months ago about how Netflix should branch into online/cloud gaming and how good of a business move it would be.

I wanted to pick something lazy and absurd that clearly wouldn’t be effective, so that I could make up stats combining two industries my professor was woefully uneducated in.

Imagine marketing this so poorly that the one person doing academic research on the topic is doing it as a complete joke and isn’t even aware that you actually offer that service. Rofl. Glad this article didn’t come out while that class was still ongoing.

Your reaction to someone saying they support someone admitting to a mistake making an attempt at rehabilitation is to put them down, then insinuate that a mistake being made also makes it unforgivable?

Perfect example of how hopelessly out of touch these suits are. Normal humans see a speeder and think “oh nice, hoverbike thing that’s sweet”. These executives watch the movie, see that the bikes are used sparingly pretty much only during chase scenes and think “oh chase scene, that’s what people love about speeder bikes, the chase scene.”

Doesn’t the fourth A overflow and actually make it a 00F tier game?
