The End of Critical Input Critical Input 2020-05-16 | Thanks so much to everyone who talked to me about the SC, helped me out with video and config making, and supporting the channel in every way. It has been an incredible journey from getting my first Steam Controller at the end of 2015, seeing Valve push out new features, making tutorials, and ultimately walking away from it all. The Steam Controller still holds a special place in my digital heart and I'd like to return to it one day. So here's to hoping that someone makes a way to use the SC without Steam.

EPOCH - A Perfect Game to Practice Gyro Aim Critical Input 2019-07-26 | Epoch is a minimal cover shooter that takes more inspiration from light gun games than Gears of War. This means that there is less of a focus on checking flanks or movement and more of a focus on aiming and taking cover. Bind the mouse exclusively to the gyro and enjoy some arcade-y shooting action while getting better at gyro aiming.

The Future (and Past) of the Unorthodox FPS Config Critical Input 2019-04-04 | A while back I wanted to try to build a new FPS config from the ground up, one that bares little resemblance to the industry standard that exists for gamepads.

Unorthodox FPS Config: Draft 1 Testing Critical Input 2018-07-24 | For those who don't know, I've been trying to move as far away from the traditional FPS controls of movement on the left part of the controller, aiming on the right side (+gyro) and shooting/aiming on the triggers. I analyzed some of the shortcomings of that config in at this reddit thread (reddit.com/r/SteamController/comments/8w3l21/rethinking_the_sc_for_shooters) and I talked about what I've tried over the last few weeks and where I'm at now in this reddit thread (reddit.com/r/SteamController/comments/91aktn/unconventional_fps_config_update_1)This is a quick video showing some of the progress I've made with this unusual config. I'm far from a pro player and I'm still adjusting to the high sensitivity so try not to focus on too much on the aim over-adjusting. It's still a work in progress after all.

Steam Controller Essentials: Using the Steam Controller with DosBox Critical Input 2018-01-28 | Here is a tutorial to get your Steam Controller and the Steam Overlay working with DosBox. This method is courtesy of Kevin Connolly and his guide can be found at steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=798840934For premade shader and .conf files: drive.google.com/open?id=1mWu218EoeDahIUZGr3Swg4NrqN7Dg7NnJust a note: this guide is aimed at using the original game files or Dos games purchased through GOG. The reason for this is that both of those formats have file format patterns and/or launch patterns. Dos games on Steam are a mess and have zero consistency so it's impossible to provide a single method that will work with every game and not require the user to understand how DosBox, .conf files, and batch files work. However, I am creating a follow up video that will present a way to handle Dos games purchased via Steam. Stay tuned for that.

While I would like to eventually make a proper video with this new information I don't know when I will get around to doing that as there are a lot of topics that I have lined up to cover. As a temporary fix I have added a Preface that explains the Controller HUD.Setting up Mouse Regions can be overwhelming so I've created a video that simplifies the process a bit by creating a roadmap to the task.This is a companion video to the SC Essentials video I did.

Steam Controller Tips: Emulating Context Sensitive Buttons Critical Input 2016-07-12 | Many console games assign multiple bindings to a single key based on what the player is currently doing.

Dirty Bomb - Gold Assault Course with Steam Controller Critical Input 2016-06-23 | This isn't my best run (I botched the airstrike and the long jump) but it is a pretty good run to showcase the Steam Controller. Tons of headshots, quick turns, wall jumps, and reflexes are shown throughout. For people who think that controllers are all built equally inferior to mouse+keyboard I'd like for them to reconsider. This is just the first in a series dedicated to the Steam Controller. I'm going to try to do these more often now that I have a setup that is fairly easy to put up and take down. The camera angle on the controller isn't great but I'm working on remedying that as well.
One Finger Death Punch - Steam Controller Gameplay Critical Input 2016-01-08 | No commentary this time around. Simple game with only two inputs: attack left or attack right. I put each of these on one of the pads and didn't require a click to activate. It felt amazing, almost like this was a dedicated controller for this game. I'm assuming Divekick feels just as natural as it only has two inputs as well.
Crysis - Using the Steam Controller (No Controller Cam) Critical Input 2015-12-19 | I decided to record some footage of me using the Steam Controller in Crysis. It was a spontaneous decision so I don't have a camera of what I'm doing with the controller yet.
