the wired version of the 360 has a permanent connection w/ strain relief so does not suffer from this issue, been using it as my PC controller for a long time now
Nice. I used to have a couple with built in wires but they eventually failed too, possibly due to separate issues.

this is def true... theres a lot distinct about it that i truly love and i will still probably buy the sequel day 1 because i still find the pure melee mechanics incredibly satisfying...ki pulse is fantastic. i can live with the drab environments and weak level design if they just gave you more interesting stuff to battle. the amount of mechanics seems baffling at first but you can really break the game pretty easily. the main issue is just yeah you get 100000 million mechanics to experiment with but 5 enemies that all fight in the exact same manner nor have very interesting encounter design over the course of a 60 hour+ game and that sort of nullifies a lot the magic of having all of this shit to experiment with.
i will play any pile of steaming dogshit if it has challenging melee combat, and opposing opinions of it being too hard and simultaneously having no room to use use its 5000 mechanics make me want to try it
yeah i think remnant is more like 'very loosely souls that happens to have shooting' and less 'shooting equivalent of souls'. i'm just trying to imagine what methodical weighty ranged combat looks like. you can bloat enemy hp but i don't think that's it

mine developed an intermittent break just ahead of the stress relief lol
The Internet is supposed to be fun. If you're not enjoying yourself, you can leave the forum forever and never look back.

Gears of War had a great sense of weight. Helped that every character is a 450 lb linebacker
the souls equivalent of shooting is arguably resident evil
and in any case the evil within is a challenging and wonderful followup to re4 and i genuinely think it's a masterpiece despite the same initial disappointment everyone else on earth seemed to experience going through the first two chapters. do you want a copy broodstar?
I’m an idiot trying to 100% Bloodstained over the holiday, why the fuck does this Flying Beef ingredient that’s in like 6 key recipes have a 1/100 drop rate unlike every item in the game
