I should not need to explain this one.

Beyond that, go for it. Not everyone is on every site all the time.

Gyro aim really helps with shooting on controllers :3 I can't play games without setting that up these days

[–] LastYearsIrritant@sopuli.xyz 12 points 10 hours ago (1 children)

I have tried so many times, I just can't get used to it.

[–] TabbsTheBat@pawb.social 2 points 9 hours ago (1 children)

Yeah it took me a couple of weeks and basically trying a bunch of options to get used to it.. as well as playing multiple games with pretty different mechanics so I could essentially practice for all of them. Though now I have the opposite issue where I can't get used to analog stick aim lol.. which isn't a major issue for me as I don't own any systems where I'd have to deal with it, but it does have some sort of irony about it :3

Fiiiine, I'll try again!

Played Death Stranding 2 like that and it was a godsend. I really wish more controllers than just Joycons and DualSense would have good motion sensing.

Yes, I very much agree, I was shocked how good gyro flicking with a sniper felt on Splatoon

[–] TabbsTheBat@pawb.social 2 points 11 hours ago

I've not played splatoon, but I know a lot of players there use gyro :3.. and nintendo in general is more gyro forward than playstation (and xbox is not even in the convo lol). I play on PC these days cause it's nice being able to set up my controller how I want with third party input remappers, feels a lot less limited :3
