A Valve engineer fixed 3D lighting so hard he had to tell all the graphics card manufacturers their math was wrong, and the reaction was: 'I hate you' (www.pcgamer.com)

It's dead though isn't it?

I believe there was a leak about a steam controller 2

[-] Trash_At_Games@lemmy.blahaj.zone 8 points 2 weeks ago

Please let it be true, I have been praying that they would for so long. I have 2 of the original and love them.

[-] chocosoldier@lemmy.blahaj.zone 4 points 2 weeks ago

god please let it be true.

Only because SCUF (and by extension their owners Corsair) are patent trolls and forced Valve to discontinue the Steam Controller due to the existence of back buttons. Valve eventually won the appeals but by then the SC was already out of production

It lives on in spirit in the Steamdeck and the HTC Vive wands.

Steamdeck actually has a second analogue stick and a D-pad though.

The lack of them on the old controller was painful and just made me swap back to a wired Xbox 360 pad. I can see the idea behind it, it's just that games weren't made for it.

Yeah, it's a great controller overall but the lack of the second analog stick breaks it for a lot of games. It probably is the best one to use for games that don't really support controllers in the first place.

Yeah, Steam Deck (with the back buttons, and the insane customization you can do with Steam Input) probably has the best controller.

But the haptics and adaptive triggers of the DualSense give it a slight edge imo. Unless your game uses a mouse, then it's SD all the way.
