The Splendid Show Returns

27 Eylül 2013 - DJ | 1 Yorum

After a long hiatus the stream has begun to flow again.

The content is extremely random while I get to grips with optimal tech options and faff with the social media end of things.

Stuff ends up at http://www.twitch.tv/djsplendid at the moment though this might change. The more interesting recordings will have meaningful titles and descriptions; the random video/sound tests will only have generic ones so you can pick out the least-trainwrecked trainwreckery for your valuable viewing attention.

Details to follow for Twatter, Failbook and other items including a Splendid Show website with some sort of attempt to roll some glitter on the proverbial poopcasts.

Before you ask, no, there will not be Starcraft stuff. I am so not interested in RTS gameplay with throw-away units and deathball resolution. We did that back in the 90s and jeeeeeesus is it DONE, already.

And no, there will not be MOBA stuff, either, as it is the most horrendously toxic non-game genre I know of.

But yes, there will be Star Citizen...

Finally called it quits with PS2 permenantly.

Found anything fun to play recently?

Also: guess who has the most play time on Miller now? (no, not me)

Oh yea... and another thing. I have a pet annoyance with the placement of my keyboard in relation to my mouse. The keyboard being so long I feel gets in the way of my mouse placement. This gamepad is obviously nice and small. I can place it where I like.

The added thumb controls are theoertically awesome. Potentially I could have 7 controls that are comfortable to press with my thumb, versus the normal 2. However, specifically with this gamepad I am not so impressed with the thumb controls. The clicky buttons feel a bit stiffer than I would like. The little joystick is not reliable enough for essential buttons (however fine for non-essential) - you will often activate two buttons rather than one. I put seat swaps on it.

I am happy I got it overall. But if I didn't specifically want a Logitech one I might have been happier with one from another company for some better thumb controls.

I like it.

The rows of the keys on a traditional keyboard are staggered, each key is not parallel to the key below it vertically. For someone with average size hands, this has a negative impact on the number of key combinations I can comfortably press. On the gamepad I can pres more.

If you don't use WASD then certain games (e.g. "Orcs Must Die") are a pain because they don't allow key customization. The gamepad bypasses the issue by allowing me to do my customized layout through the gaming software.

Each key can also be a macro, if you wanted say a DPI toggle on your keyboard (which is something I want), you can do it (specifically with this keypad).

Mmmmm control schemes. Delicious.
I've never pulled the trigger on those keypad modules though I have looked at them since the first time I saw one, in late 90s or so? They were marketed for RTS more than anything back then.
The last time I looked (only abour a year ago) I rejected it for a reason I've since forgotten. What do you make of it?
