Ooh! Thank you, friend! Think I’ll take a crack at this soon then!

My original Steam Controller is still kicking, but the thumb stick pad has eroded away. Really want to replace the stick if I can 😓

100% get that it’s a niche controller, but I am that target market. I play a ton of strategy and old point and click games from my couch because I hate sitting at a desk, and crazy enough I still have the original steam controller for that reason. Honestly the price point it’s at and the feature set it has are entirely justifiable for me. Even though I don’t play a ton of shooters, the gyro on it is a must for me since I can’t do basic stick aiming. Just with the old Steam Controller, and even the Steam Deck, it’s not gonna be for everyone, but this is like a dream come true for me. And I’m not opposed to cheaper options as well, wife has an 8bitdo that does feel fantastic for the value too.

For its feature set, nah feels fine. I’ll likely preorder it. Still cheaper than pro controllers, but has all the inputs I’d expect from those, and more.

You have access to Firefox addons, can install ublock just fine. As for proton I’m not sure

Forgot to add too, considering Firebreak's downfall, it would be pretty insane for Remedy to even attempt another live-service like or adjacent any time soon.

[–] remnant2652@piefed.world 1 points 2 months ago (1 children)

I understand the worry, however I'd say what has shown to be profitable and work for Remedy does stray from this new CEO's typical wheelhouse. Remedy tried the live-service market and failed pretty bad. He may have entirely been hired just to help get them afloat financially. Also Sam Lake seems to approve, and I'd trust his voice in this considering the universe they've been building is his baby.

God damn I love Alan Wake. Hoping Remedy brings us back with an Alan Wake III soon…
