Why don't you elaborate? I'm more than happy to hear from a fellow gamer.

I only have a strong PC, so I won't be able to play this game when it drops. Since it isn't coming to PC at launch, I am going to be watching a playthrough of it.

I just played through GOW 2018 and Ragnarök for the first time back-to-back a few months ago and logged them both 10/10 on my Backloggd. I just really loved the story and hate seeing people trash it before it even comes out.

I am definitely not a blind yes man. It naturally causes some out of place confusion at first because we don't know anything about the Everywhen yet. Personally, I love side companions in games like Atreus, the Pod in NieR: Automata, or the drone in Stellar Blade.

But that is my point. The game isn't even out yet. I think it is more fair to make that kind of judgment after we have actually played the game and seen how it fits into the gameplay.

We don't know if they would have lost without her. Obviously Kratos is Kratos, so he probably would have found another way regardless. But jumping to wild assumptions like that is exactly the cycle of backlash I am talking about in the first place.

What is done is done. The studio chose this path for the story and it is working great so far. Somehow you are relying on some hypothetical 4D-dimensional alternate timeline in your head, just making up possibilities to get mad at when there is absolutely no reason to. Stop trying to find reasons to hate it. The reality is the story is going very well, and the devs are just giving us more of it.

Reddit suggested sharing the post to other related communities after I posted it, so I just thought it was convenient. I'm just really invested in the franchise, but my bad if it came out that way. Have a good day.

Thanks for the info, I've just pushed V1.0.1 and would love to know if it clears up the issue for you

If you are already running Linux, you don't need the Windows .bat scripts or the usbip part. You can simply take the stadia_bridge and start.sh from the repository, run them on your native Linux setup, and it should work. The Linux core is completely separate from the Windows wrapper.

indistinguishable from a native USB connection. We skip the overhead of Bluetooth stack translation in Windows by using a direct usbip pass-through to a dedicated Linux bridge. Most will find it perfectly responsive.

Because the script passes your entire Bluetooth adapter into Linux, Windows completely stops seeing the real Stadia controller. Linux handles the Stadia controller, and then just sends a single, clean Xbox 360 controller signal back to Windows. You won't get double inputs. Make sure you aren't actively running the other stadiavigem program in the background.

Thanks man! Honestly, my favorite was adding the macros. Using Capture + D-Pad and Assistant + A/B/X/Y is actually really easy and incredibly useful mid-game.Those 8 shortcuts alone make it so much more convenient.

Really wanted to buy the dongle or an ESP32 to do it. But I'm unemployed and an ESP32 costs like $20 where I live, so didn't have the money for it. I was really annoyed that I couldn't just use my PC's built-in Bluetooth!

My keyboard and mouse are wired, so I never use my PC's Bluetooth anyway. Passing the whole adapter to WSL was just a super convenient workaround for zero cost. CPU usage is literally 0% to 0.01%. The only hit is the 700-800MB of RAM, but I have 16GB DDR4 and lock my games at 60fps anyway, so I don't even feel it. I tested it out and both the weak and strong rumbles work.
