Steam News: An update on Steam Input and controller support
  • Before a lot of the compatibility like Steam Input and the like, some controller users had to download weird conversion drivers that made Windows see connected controllers as Xbox controllers. I did this with my old PS3 controller.

  • Thinking about getting into OSRS again..
  • I consider completing Drsgon Slayer 1 my own litmus test of whether I should upgrade an account to members. On making it stick, that’s a difficult situation. There is always stuff to do in OSRS. Is all of it fun? Depends on what you like. I used to not mind Agility, now I hate it, but it’s useful to train. I’ve realized I love PvM and am working long-term towards end-game bosses, butt combat training gets boring for me after a while of the same thing, so I switch it up and train something else or play something else. Dual monitors helps a lot too for AFK skilling, having something to watch simultaneously is fun to me. Podcasts can fulfill a similar thing, or just vibing to music.

    The biggest thing is knowing your limits to prevent boredom or burnout. It’s a gigantic game and a gigantic time sink if you want to make a lot of progress. If you get to mid game and can’t commit to longer grinds, l hate to say the game just might not be for you. But you can get a very good idea of the member experience with 30 days of membership, I think.

  • Recommendation for a high-quality webcam for Linux
  • I recently found out about Anker and I bought a wired ergonomic vertical mouse as I had been experiencing wrist pain recently. High quality for a very low price point, and from the looks of it most of their products are like that. Also helped with the wrist pain!

  • Discord to start showing ads in-app this week - Dexerto
  • While I’m generally against in-app ads, I think it’s interesting to note how many people in the comments likely did not read the actual article linked. It seems that every user can entirely opt-out of seeing the ads. While they are ads, they aren’t really so in the traditional sense: you stream a developer’s game to other users on Discord and you can get gifts in Discord. Not so bad I don’t think, though I don’t use the gifts much at all, and it’ll probably be for the types of games I don’t play.

  • DayZ Happy 10th Anniversary
  • 10 years ago, DayZ taught me some very valuable lessons: do not buy into the hype trains, never preorder games, and rarely trust early access games. However I’m glad they didn’t abandon it, and fixed a lot of issues along the way.

  • Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic Remake Is Dead
  • It’s never worked for me too well on PC. If I recall it doesn’t have native widescreen support or something. It made the UI difficult to navigate. I love the game and played it on Xbox originally, but typically gave up tweaking it on PC. Was looking forward to the remake; I’d pay for the convenience. But I get what you’re saying.
