Do you like paying hundreds of dollars for a huge controller that you only use for a small handful of gaming genres? You do? Then this is the community for you!
Arcade Sticks/Fightsticks Community (Lemmy.World)
After subscribing, feel free to drop a pic of your arcade stick(s), custom artwork, mods, etc. Customization is half the fun with arcade sticks, so show them off.
One of the reasons I chose to name this community Arcade Sticks rather than Fightsticks is because these controllers are great for more than just fighting games. Any game that has roots in arcades or otherwise features arcade-inspired gameplay can benefit from the precision and snappiness of a nice arcade stick (including modern leverless variants).
Personally, I tend to use mine a lot when playing bullet hell shmups on my PC. Pictured in this post is my beloved Qanba Q4RAF, which is IMO the best stick that Qanba ever put out. Hell, I'd argue it's the best commercially released stick ever, but that's probably worthy of another thread sometime in the near-future...
Figured I'd kick things off in this new community with a picture showing how my Madcatz TE2 (PS4) stick has evolved over the years.
I got the Guilty Gear Xrd version when it released many years ago, and it's still what I'm using today to play GG: Strive, Street Fighter 6, and all other PS4/PS4 fighting games.
It feels fitting to post this now, as it will likely be retired/replaced in the next month or so when my first leverless stick arrives (the 2023 Snack Box Micro). I'll be sure to post a picture of that as well once I get it customized with some new artwork.
Another Lemmy newbie question here.
I have subscribed to a small handful of Communities that live outside of Lemmy.world, and that worked easily enough. But I notice that when accessing them here rather than on their own servers they aren't quite in sync. Posts are in a different order or delayed when viewing them from Lemmy.world through my subscriptions, thumbnail images don't load, and the subscriber count in the sidebar is often much lower here than when viewing the Community on its host instance.
Is this intended behavior, a known issue with Lemmy, or something on my end?
This is my first day in the Fediverse, and I'm building out my sub list in Lemmy right now. I noticed that searching for Communities only looks within the instance that I'm logged into. Is there any easy way to search across all available Lemmy servers for Communities?
