Does the Steam release of Battlefront II not have native controller support? It did on Origin.

Starting it in Steam though I have to use a controller profile that does the Joystick Mouse emulation thing. Ooof.
It's probably Steam itself being stupid I bet.

This was a good watch. I never got into DF because of the ASCII art but for some reason always assumed the game was made by an insane Russian guy. I'm really looking forward to checking it out once it hits Steam.

The joystick mouse emulation thing sounds like the Steam Controller Settings being the dumbest loving part of Steam again. Go to controller settings in the game properties and set it to forced off.

I don’t know why Steam likes to set that to on without telling people, since it’s basically only for the garbage steam controller that no one uses.

Yeah, sometimes it loads up a "popular" controller scheme automatically. I remember when I first played Dark Souls 3, it loaded one that emulated a mouse for the left stick and replaced the bumpers with right and left click. It was bizarre.

You can go into the settings and make a default control scheme that just maps 1:1 with a controller, then you can always just switch to that.

They did finally make some of those options accessible on the parts of Steam that people actually use — as of a few weeks ago you can at least turn off the “steam fucks with your controller settings without permission or notification” stuff from options.

Why Valve thinks that jamming that feature on without telling people is a good idea, I couldn’t tell you.

It's a really obviously handy feature if you assume the absolute best from your users

This is why sane systems design requires thinking about use cases where people are loving up or intentionally using your software badly

And why you need to at least inform the users that Steam itself is changing poo poo, because when a game is acting weird or in unexpected ways I’m going to try troubleshooting the game, and not the launcher unless I have a reason to think the launcher is involved in some way.

drat with like 65 hours in it and working my way through the hard mode in Demoncrawl I thought I was near the end of it, but the game just introduced like 3 new layers of meta progression and a ton of new mechanics. This is absolutely one of the better bang-for-my-buck purchases I've ever made

Anyone else with just the worst performance in Shipbreaker? Is it just Early Access Blues or could I do something to fix it? I've got a good enough PC that a game like this shouldn't average 30-40 fps.

The only time it's particularly bad for me is when something breaks and explodes, the ships breaking apart looks awesome but is really taxing. I imagine more on the CPU than anything. What system are you working with? I'm on an i7 6700K with a GTX1070. I'd say outside of those times I get a pretty steady 60 with maybe some dips below occasionally.

I have an i7-9700K and a 2070 Super and will still have it go all slideshow when something explodes. I would figure that’s early access jank more than anything else.

I have a GTX1070 too and if I look at my hardware monitors, the game is 100% maxing out my GPU and sometimes only delivering 40 FPS. That's in addition to maxing out the CPU and turning into a slideshow when large scale destruction is going on. It's kinda weird because the game doesn't seem to be rendering that much stuff.

This will be interesting I think. Along with Issac, rogue legacy really ushered in the glut of indie roguelikes. At the time I liked it but in hindsight it was pretty poo poo so I'm curious if they are going to incorporate all the best practices that have been sussed out over the years

Ryzen 5 2600, GTX1070 and 16 gigs of ram, very comfortable specs, I'd assume. Based on what other people say, I'm gonna go for early access leading to some being lucky and some (like me) just being unlucky.
