Edited to clarify. And you can roll separated buttons just as easily… I know because I’d do it a lot on the psp with dj max.
One of them Carpenter nerd types.

The directional pad is four separate buttons. Up down left right. I want them to be like the c buttons on the Nintendo 64 controller. Separate.
What ends up happening with me is that I’ll press down but not squarely down. There is a good chance I’ll press partially to the left or right while using smaller d pads. This causes extra inputs I didn’t intend to do happen. The ds made playing tetris much harder on me than it should have for me.
Yeah, I just wish they’d split the directionals.
I do not know what the industry wide obsession is with connected D-pads, but my chunky thumbs do not appreciate it.
And with that in mind, the Playstation style of controllers are the closest thing to my ideal controller currently on the market.
Also, I prefer thumbstick under D-pad just in case I need to hit one of those buttons regularly I have a few options.
The heat has been kicking my little plot into overdrive. I had to raise up the pest net to allow the little ones to grow safely… But they’re also crowding the heck out of each other at the moment. I think the greenbeans might kill out the less leafy carrots, but we’ll see how they get along.
Terraria. An old friend popped up to ask me if I’d like to play and it’s been many updates ago and at least a decade since I last played. We are playing both calamity and Fargo souls mods mashed together and having a hell of a time with the extreme difficulty as we work through the boss fights.
Not to mention our life schedules work out to 2 hours a day.
A new Mario, Zelda, metroid is what ninten does? Well, I suppose the article is technically correct. Shame the company is a dinosaur with draconian beliefs.
I finally started doing story missions in dragons dogma 2. I’m level 60 and just started quests in the first main city.
I don’t think I played anything over the past week. I’ve been thinking about trying some fresh builds in nova drift, which is in it’s final steps to full release.
I remembered that I played dragons dogma 2, as I also did last night and there is something inherently wrong with the later parts in that game. I’m wandering through the desert sections of the map, clearing everything as I go, and I’ve flat out lost pawns while just walking on major paths. They get stuck running into a cliff face somewhere and no commands or anything else will tell them to knock it off. I literally have to go to them, pick them up, and move them away from the wall. I must have missed one of them getting this stuck as she simply despawned completely instead of teleporting back to the group. I have been besieged by roaming groups of what might as well be orcs only to look at the minimal and realize my front men are somewhere 100m back. It’s so incredibly frustrating.
here’s my little plot in the back yard. I forgot to take some pics when I got home, and it’s a bit dark now.
And as soon as RiF announced it wasn’t going to be able to continue, I moved here.
My little patch is going strong for the time being. I’ll update later when I’m not in a spot that hates my connection to upload a pic.
Currently we have some pleasant tomatos, carrots, parsley, basil, and a safe container of mint elsewhere so it doesn’t attempt to take over. Outside of the plot, the grape vine is loving every bit of sunshine it can grab and the blueberry bush is also quite happy.
I don’t recall ever seeing ads on reddit, and I know exactly why. On Mobile, RiF barely had ads, and desktop was all adblocked.
Though they were often the topic of crank posts, specifically the Christian ones around the atheism sub.
Huh. I wonder if maybe covering nearly every single product in it, mixing cloth with it, and generally using it for everything large or small might not have been the way to avoid being completely full or microplastics.
And then hilariously I happen across this article today about a free unreal 5 version of fable some fan has made. From the looks it seems like a prettying up of the original, but might not have changed much if anything about the gameplay.
After spending a bit of time back on the original, I can say that the camera controls are just naturally janky, though it is significantly worse on the anniversary edition and it might be due to something as simple as the increased aspect ratio.
There was some random video on YouTube about the original fable and I had the urge to play it again. At some point had received the anniversary edition on steam so I loaded it up. 30 minutes and a bit of motion sickness later I uninstalled it and went hunting for my actual original disk. Found it, installed it, and the options and controls are so much better… It’s amazing that they ported the Xbox version for the anniversary edition and didn’t bother to include things like mouse sensitivity, smoothing, acceleration, or really any pc specific options.
The main issue is that the camera seems to be connected to more than just character location, it seems to also be connected to orientation of some part of the character, like the hip. Combat is jittery as all hell, movement isn’t pleasant, and everything else hardly matters… I will be playing the original.
D-pad for precision, analog for thereabouts.
Or in monster hunter, d-pad for camera with index finger, analog for movement with thumb, embrace claw until everything cramps.
Probably that first NES controller… Those corners were hell on the palms.
