Far as I’m concerned it’s the new normal. (Loving it! and expect to be able to repair it for a loong time.)
Reminds me how people into drones used to make their quads play entire songs with the motors and then would burn them out from overheating
I’m out of the loop. What did the steam controller do.
Despite not having a speaker the steam controller screams when you drop or throw it.
I have no speaker, and I still scream.
Uses similar vibration-based haptic audio output as the Joycons or the Dualsense.
Doesn’t the Dualsense have a dedicated speaker in the bottom middle of the face, independent from the haptic vibrators?
Or the original Steam Controller.
Is this post a joke or are you alluding to functionality that exists on a software level in case a controller were to be released that did include a speaker?
It uses the haptic motors to make a Wilhelm scream sound effect. Not a joke.
You think they licensed that from…it would be Disney now?
Looks like it is licensed under Creative Commons CC0, so anyone should be able to use it for free
Wtf I want one just for that alone. Well, I was going to buy it anyways since I have a SD, but now I have even more justification for it!
Wilhelm scream.
screams
If I end up buying one, this would be the reason
This is an absolutely brilliant move by Valve. Get more buyers purely for the quirky behavior of the controller, then sell even more when people accidentally break them from throwing them on the ground. They’re just printing money at this point.
