I always thought the GameCube controller was ridiculously comfortable and ergonomic, so that’s my choice. The C stick might not be for everyone though.

Any Dreamcast fans here? Those controllers had similar ergonomics in the hand, although the lack of a second analog stick was a pretty big drawback in hindsight.

I really wish that had caught on. Were you a Phantasy Star Online player, by chance?

Right now: Witch Image by Ghost. I actually created a playlist to keep track of all the songs that get stuck in my head a while ago, and I’m up to ~36 hours of songs so far. Shuffling that playlist never disappoints, because they’re all songs I’ve been listening to in my head anyway.

This used to be more common ~20 years ago when Steam first launched. Most modern applications seem to have abandoned this practice though.

Ever wonder how many meetings it takes to get stuff like this done? Sheesh.

$2000 should get you something pretty nice. Do you have anything specific in mind that you’re planning to do with it? Important stuff to keep in mind up front, in no particular order: do you play games? How big should the screen be? How long do you want to use it on battery? Any operating system preferences?

I’m expecting the usual Bethesda bugfest for the first month or two, but the game itself seems like it should be pretty entertaining and immersive. My plan is to see what the Steam reviews look like in a month or two.

Such a shame. I understand not wanting to compromise on details and graphics, but 60fps should be the bare minimum any developer is happy with in 2023.
