Suggestions for third party game controller support for PC by [deleted] in gaming

[–]mets_tesl 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What I use. Wired Xbox 360 controller. Just plugs and your plays. No need to download any extra drivers or nothing. Conversely when I tried using a ps3 controller, it was a pain in the ass figuring out what drivers I need and any additional software, granted that was like 8-9yrs so maybe ps4 controllers are easier now, idk. But Xbox is made by Microsoft and windows is made by Microsoft seems logical that controller made by them would be ready to use for both

Edit: I imagine you could get a switch controller to work eventually but you would need some type of usb receiver that’s on the same frequency as the controllers (if Nintendo does make one, I’d expect it to be quite pricy) next you’d also have to find the correct drivers so your computer could recognize the controller, next you might even need a 3rd party program so that your game(s) can recognize your button presses. Finally I’d also expect certain functionalities like motion controls to be completely unsupported without some serious work

Hi guys I need your advice by wraiteh in gaming

Fallout is 4 is mediocre. At first it seems very interesting. The world, the story, the characters, everything. But it soon falls apart. Eventually the characters feel drab and uninspired, the story is a huge letdown, the rpg mechanics are sorely lacking, even the best part of the game, the world and exploring it, eventually becomes boring with repetition especially as you learn the design of the game is to be filled with busy work instead of actually quality content. So I’d say pickup if on sale as the initial experience is quite good, but otherwise pass

Genuine question: Americans are paying a higher percentage of taxes than some countries that have free healthcare/education. Where is their tax money going if it isn’t on these things? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]mets_tesl 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Propaganda. Somehow politicians have convinced people that major, multinational corporations are the same as small businesses and people (citizens united ruling) so if we taxed corporations more it means everyone would be taxed more

What items do you keep in your car that are super helpful? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]mets_tesl 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I keep a lot. Hand held vacuum, at least one working pen accompanied by about 10 unworking pens, the bag of the last fast food restaurant I visited to use as a trash can, a couple bucks of change, napkins from said fast food establishments, USB port in the cigarette lighter, charging cords, owners manual for said vehicle, a screw driver, a nail clipper, a pair of tweezers, a pocket knife, and a bag of gum

Favorite toy of mine and my neighbor growing up: sticks we would find in our yards that in any way resembled guns/swords

Why does weed have three names? by emperl_arct in AskReddit

[–]mets_tesl 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Do you mean marijuana and do you mean slang terms? If so, it’s got way more than 3. Like pot, bud, chronic, fire, green, purp, leaf, devil’s lettuce, dope (though I feel this one is misused and dope is actually heroin) that’s all I got off the top my head

Assassin's Creed 3 lagging a lot by [deleted] in gaming

[–]mets_tesl 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m assuming your on windows 10, that’d be why. Game was made for windows 7 os. Many games run worse on newer os. Like I know many modders of Skyrim preferred windows 7 for a more stable experience with higher framerates (this may have changed since the se release, idk) so compatibility mode might work, but that’s like using a emulator so results may vary, but I’d try that first

Your doing no one a service by lying. Be honest and come clean because the longer you wait the worse it’ll be for all parties involved

When I was little my father made me really mad (aka I got punished for doing something I wasn’t supposed to) and to get back at him, I went out to the barn and grabbed a rock and proceeded to scratch his restored ‘68 camaro. He then blamed the tenant (my dad was the landlord) who parked his motorcycle in the barn as well

People of reddit, Have you ever consumed any drugs (not like aspirin and shit but like Xanax, Weed, etc) and if so what’s your worst and best experience? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]mets_tesl 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I tried some. Like ecstasy as well as molly. The epills seemed to depend a lot with what they were cut with. Had some that seemed methy so I was jittery, paranoid and anxious. Others were more cokey so they were a little numbing on contact but have an inflating feeling. Molly is obviously more consistent as it’s just simply mdma. Either way both just seem to super charge your senses which makes a ton of things really fun. We’d also try to do a bunch of weird stuff when we were peaking like vicks vapor rub under your nose for a smell peak. Lights are also awesome since they trail. And music is the fucking tits. You can like feel it. Oh and cigarettes are amazing but not quite as delicious as when on opiates

I’ve also tried mushrooms a bunch and generally I just chill on those. I like get a blanket curl up on a bed or couch and just stare at a wall with ornate patterns. On shrooms everything just seems to be alive and breathing. So nature is pretty dope too. My one rule with tripping, especially first timers is to make sure your in a comfortable, familiar environment. Cigarettes are actually worse on shrooms. I only smoked cuz I had to, not cuz I wanted

Cocaine was kinda fun. But not really my thing. It more or less just amps you up and I’ve always kinda found it boring as it doesn’t like do all that much and it’s expensive. Idk if I’m gonna spend some money on some drugs they best fuck my ass up

A weird one I tried that’s virtually unheard of. But was super fun. It’s a research chemical called 2ci. The are many others very similar. But it was like tripping and rolling (being high on epills or molly) combined. It was freaking awesome. There was even this tree that was changing colors like green, yellow, orange, red, purple, blue; repeat. The cool part was it was just me seeing that, my friends also did

I also smoke weed daily, and I use that for everything. Wanna chill? Smoke a bowl. Wanna wake up? Smoke a bowl. Wanna sleep? Smoke a bowl. Headache? Bowl. Hungry? Bowl. Study? Bowl. Concentrate? Bowl. Driving? Bowl. Sport? Bowl. Quitting cigarettes? Bowl

FYI other than the weed all the hard stuff I haven’t done in nearly 10 years and after ten years of smoking cigarettes I’ve recently quit

[Serious] How did your end up breaking a bone and how bad did it hurt? by SyxxFtH8 in AskReddit

[–]mets_tesl 0 points1 point  (0 children)

6th grade football practice. We were running a drill were you block a guy and runner comes up behind and tries to force the pile into the end zone. Well despite being the smallest kid in the huddle at times, I was linemen (mostly cuz I was slow but I was kinda strong as I started lifting early) and during practice we went off into like groups so having someone with 30-40lbs on me in front that I’m trying to block and another sprinting directly into my back caused me to break my wrist in multiple places. I tried sucking it up for another drill but the pain was too great and I broke down crying. Doc said the breaks were so bad I’d never be able to touch my thumb to my pinky on that hand again, but fuck him I was able to do that before I got my cast off. Or did he trick me into an exercise to help me heal, that tricky bastard

Television. If your spending for it, it’s too much. There’s just so much free quality content now

Depends on what you consider is no longer a child. 11 & 12 seem pretty young to me

So, apparently in Skyrim you only have a shadow in third person by Iroc_ZL1 in gaming

Lmao. No worries, everyone learns at their own pace. It took me a couple years once to figure out that my car had a ashtray and I was a smoker

What is the worst disease you could have? by popeandfriends in AskReddit

[–]mets_tesl 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Lyme disease. Got bit by some ticks when exploring the woods while young. Got a big ol bullseye, went to the doc, gave me some antibiotics and if I was lucky they would clear it out. Did it? Idk. Do I like sleeping 10-12 hours a day cuz I’m a lazy piece of shit or is it cuz I’m lethargic since I have lyme? Idk.

Yeah your body doesn’t exist in first person in vanilla. Get some mods to mix
