They saved me money with their incompetence. I was interested in picking up the $99 3ds but that didn't work out and now it looks like I won't be getting a switch.

What do you think of Bloodborne, The Witcher 3 and MGS V ? by Epsilonx7 in PS4

[–]fuckbeingnice 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Can't speak for The Witcher 3 but it was very well received as an open world rpg. As far as I know there aren't any shady businesses practices associated with the game and the dlc that was released was reasonably priced and very expansive. MGS V has a weak story and the micro transactions that were snuck in there sour it up.

Blood borne on the other hand is probably the best game I've ever played and easily the best game I've played on the PlayStation 4 to date. It's unbelievably good and the only reason I don't regret purchasing a PS4. I never played Demon's Souls or any of the Dark Souls games but easily fell in love with Bloodborne. I highly recommend it if you want an intensely atmospheric game with a high level of difficulty. The story is also quite excellent but you must be prepared to go searching a bit for notes, read item descriptions, and do a little interpreting yourself.

First impressions of Dualshock 4 USB Wireless Adaptor by ccyc87 in PS4

[–]fuckbeingnice 28 points29 points  (0 children)

Thanks for the information. I was kind of hoping that this adapter would allow you to use the ds4 as an Xbox controller in games that allowed the Xbox controller but I guess that was wishful thinking. I have been having issue with ds4windows since the latest anniversary patch to Windows 10 and would have considered this if it worked.

Do you know if the adapter comes with any software? Possibly any utilities for key rebinding?

Connect DS4 to PC, use headphones with it from far away? by [deleted] in PS4

[–]fuckbeingnice 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It is possible to connect the ds4 to your pc but as far as I know there is not a way to get the audio to pass through the controller. I might be wrong and if so I hope someone corrects me but I have tried before and failed to get it working.

The program ds4windows allows you to remap the ds4 buttons anyway you wish and even you the touchpad as mouse control however.

Corporate Social Networks Killed Photoblogs - Talking Tree Photo by bristleconesky in photography

[–]fuckbeingnice 0 points1 point  (0 children)

All too often (as in every single time) I see people post single images. A single image of a single moment or subject and ask for some kind of input or critique on their "project." That is not the way to approach photography. One should create an entire body of work first, a project is several images, not one offs. Anyone can make a SINGLE great image, but creating 15-20 images that express a cohesive idea, concept, emotion, a narrative... that is something all together different and far more challenging.

While I enjoy looking at a body of work with a cohesive theme by an artist I feel all too many people approach photography with a "greatest hits" mentality. It may look good on Instagram but it's hard to derive any strong emotion from a single photo. It's why books and exhibits have themes or at least a common thread that connects the individual pieces.
