I had a lot of fun with it. Tower defense gives the wrong impression. It’s those old Warcraft III scenarios meets The Binding of Issac. It was too crunchy for me at first, but I grew to really like it. Still might not be for you, but hopefully that gives you a better idea of what it is.

Is that USB-C or micro-USB?

It looks fine, I guess, but I really wish they’d offset their thumb sticks like everyone else.

What I like/love:
*The dpad is identical to previous dualshocks, thank christ.
*The PS logo cutout as a button is brilliant
*Dedicated mute button.
*Textured thumbsticks, fucking finally.

What I don’t immediately like:
*The dual lightbars, which we goddamn well better to be able to fully disable.

Fucking over Walmart, Target, Best Buy and mom and pops? Hell, Amazon? Dude, you didn’t think your comment though before you posted it, did you?

And besides, would anyone rather that Pitchford took his $12 million from the employee’s 40%? No.

Not a day goes by when I’m not entirely relieved I gave up on trying to be a game developer.

I think many would agree that the lack of a formal union for game devs is the problem.  If you’re advocating for some economic model that completely removes capitalism, I’m not sure if that would be a better solution.

You were thinking of Geraldo Rivera, weren't you? 😄

They actually are helpful, but only because they generally keep you from touching your face.

It’s because they are intended to be worn when you are already sick, to prevent spreading it further.
