I completely agree that the switch is genuinely painful to hold on handheld mode for more than ten minutes. The controllers and buttons are too small, it’s flat, and generally not ergonomic. It’s definitely designed for child sized hands in mind and not adults. I do my best to avoid using it in handheld mode.

Meanwhile, my steam deck is a much superior design. The ergonomics are excellent, it fits my hands, the buttons are spaced apart well, and are adequately sized, and I can play for hours with no hand cramps.

However…

The switch absolutely trounces the deck on portability. The fact that it’s flat and small means that, even while in a case, it’s extremely easy to slip into a backpack and take on the go. The deck while in a case, however, is bulky and doesn’t fit in a backpack if I want to put anything else in there (like a book and my laptop).

They were each designed with different goals in mind. I hate the ergonomics of the switch, but really do appreciate how easy it is to take on the go. I love the ergonomics of the deck, but hate how cumbersome it is to take anywhere. Nintendo made the choice to sacrifice ergonomics, and valve made the choice to sacrifice portability. Unfortunately, no solution will be perfect, and I accept that.

Maybe they recognize what the clock looks like at 8:30.

A Ford Expedition from a car rental place. It felt like driving around a ten ton brick through molasses. It was the least responsive and awkward shit box I’ve ever had the displeasure of piloting. It was so bad I literally drove to the nearest rental place to exchange it for a smaller car.

Literally any ad. I hate advertising in all forms and it does nothing but piss me off. If your ad is intrusive enough, I’ll remember it well enough to never buy your product.

Yeah Mozart really fell off after he died.

I’m not tired.

Disqualifying a game because it’s 3rd person seems like a very stupid and nitpicky policy.

I see you have neither learned or been born with kindness.

I did something similar. A word of warning: if you’re expecting the elegant gameplay from control in Alan Wake, you’re going to be disappointed. The combat is clunky and difficult for the wrong reasons. Go into it with an open mind.

As a sufferer of illness anxiety disorder, what you’re describing sounds a lot like the thought processes I went through before seeking therapy for it.

You’ve described very little evidence indicating you have diabetes, but a ton of evidence indicating you have illness anxiety disorder. I am not a doctor and cannot diagnose you, but my suggestion is to talk to a professional who can.

Regularly. I refuse to buy a phone without a headphone jack.

Can the new content be not charging almost the full price of an entire new game for the DLC?

It is and we are.

The entire universe ends.

He murdered innocent civilians for the actions of the government. There are zero valid excuses or reasons for doing that. Sounds like you support terrorism.

What the actual fuck? People can’t possibly think his word is worth anything more than sewage.

It’s pro, that’s why.

Anytime people get mad at the metrologist for being wrong, I remind them that they’re LITERALLY PREDICTING THE FUTURE.
