Sackboy? Cyberspunk? Witcher 3: Wild Cunt?
Hilariously, the actual Cyberpunk game would work for this. There’s a weapon in the game that’s just a giant dildo, and holding it causes your controller to rumble continuously.
I just bought a new gamepad, the first with a rumblepak/vibrator that I’ve ever owned. I didn’t know how to test it so I found 2 websites that will just vibrate it however you want. Then I found that this old remastered boomer shooter has rumble even when playing with keyboard and mouse! Let it sit on my belly while playing lol
‘please, Internet, tell me how to turn my game controller into a vibrator’
Kids these days… Back in my day, we just turned on FF8 and spammed summons
Oh God, I literally quit the game because the summons were so absurd. I feel I spent more time watching the same animations than I did playing the game.
I imagine that’s a design consideration.- same with Ultima and other big spells. You get a big payoff after a big wind-up. It’s trying to telegraph that if you want speed you should build your party differently using junctions
game designers be like: NO! REBUILD YOUR PARTY IF YOU DON’T LIKE SUMMON ANIMATIONS! WE WILL NOT PUT A SKIP BUTTON IN!!!
honestly I don’t hate it as a decision. there should be rewards for using all the mechanics well
I forget which game, but it had two different durations of summon/cast. The first time was always the long one, then youd regularly get the short one, youd randomly “crit” and get the long one, which did more damage.
I was obsessed with that game when it came out. Just played it again, and it’s actually pretty bad. Even without using summons at all, and with emulator fast-forward on most of the time, it’s almost unbearably slow and tedious.
At least there was button tapping to power up so there was SOMETHING to do during the forever animations
?
Bro you spammed limit breaks in that game, tell your kid self to git gud
FF7 was the unrelenting Summon Fest once you got mimic and w-summon
You missed out on the tomb raider demo disc that came with PlayStation magazine (probably issue 73 based on the fact I have it and I wasn’t subscribed very long while demo discs were a thing) Same era.
If you went for a swim in the pool, and swam into the side, you’d not only get a constant intense vibration, you’d also get to see her swimming motion, and I don’t think it had breath mechanics yet (or at least she wouldn’t die in the demo zone), so you could take your time. Win win.
There was also a vibration test in the menu if you just wanted no frills.
We played Rez with the Trance Vibrator
I still have Rez and the official trance vibrator!
Oooooh Shiva, you can be my ice queen any day
Kids these days… Back in my day, we just turned on FF8 and spammed summons
pre-teen me spamming Shiva.
So this brings up a funny story.
IDK when, but I was on a trip, thinking about my ex wife(then girlfriend at the time) with my parents somewhere and they had these vibrating back massager things. Usually they’re like 4 wooden balls on sticks attached to a wooden handle. I knew how much my ex loved it. Anyway I thought “dude fucking brilliant” and I bought it for her and my parents were like: “Uh, ok? You sure she’s going to like that?” “I’m like are you kidding me? The number of times I have to get sore hands from giving her a back massage is incredible!” Oh, I’m like 15 at the time.
Well, I gift it to her, and with the smallest hint of embarrassment says she absolutely loves it. That night she thanks me again, saying it made things so much easier, in kind of a flirty tone. I completely miss all social cues always so this didn’t register. Sometime later I come over and she wants one of the back rubs, and I’m like “hey, grab that tool I got!”
She responds with “I’m not in the mood for that, besides it’s out of batteries.”
I thought I was going to fold into myself. “How many back rubs have you given yourself?” “Oh, like none. Just the fun stuff.” The heaviest levels of cringe hit, knowing how many people saw me buying this for my girlfriend completely oblivious to what it would be used for.
Getting your gf a vibrator is adorable.
Don’t know about on PlayStation but: https://borderlands.fandom.com/wiki/Good_Touch
An unlisted effect occurs with game controllers using vibrate that breaks the fourth wall. While the character wields the gun, the controller will vibrate continuously even when not firing.
Just use Buttplug.io
We were vibe coding before it was cool.
The only acceptable form of vibe coding
I… Ok that’s just impressive.
I am once again asking you all to just buy proper sex toys and lube.
I never understood what lube is for…
Its for lubrication
You ever try shoving something up your ass/pussy when it’s completely dry?
Actually yes. My entire finger. Didn’t find what I was looking for.
Is lithium grease good or should I go with graphite?
I agree , but in these cases it’s probably a kid or teenager trying to make do with what they have.
Assuming they’re a teenager, you trusted your parents not to search through your stuff a lot more than most. Parents aren’t going to give you any lectures or punish you for having a PS5 controller in your room.
I am once again lubing up a Kaiser roll with spicy brown mustard
Are you gonna sponsor this for us? That shit is expensive for no good reason. It used to be affordable, but the brands got greedy. I used to buy a decent-sized tube for 250 pesos, but now it’s $500 for the same tube or $99 for a couple of squirts.
$99 for a couple of squirts, you say? 🤔
Go on…Grab a tub of coconut oil
OOP should just hump a Furby like a normal person
If those Furbies could feel anything, that’d be a warcrime.
https://buttplug.io/ is compatible with xbox gamepads with rumble
This individual specified PS5, they might need DS4W too
Connect to PC, use DS4Windows config screen.
Sony should sell their own vibrators. Like a DS5, but everything cut off except for the grip to hold the vibration motor and the Dpad to adjust the settings.
And a flared base, of course.
My initial Google search with Gemini says neither Sony nor their subsidiaries produce adult novelty vibrators.
However, I would be willing to bet money the same vibrating motors in their controllers are in a vibrator somewhere without knowing more details about how that tech is sourced. I could be wrong but I like to think somewhere someone is using the same vibrator to rub one out as the one in a PS5 controller.
They don’t do that because the controller chip will cancel vibration after a while. The reason for that is exactly what you would imagine people used it for.
You’d need to mod the controller with a custom chip.
The reason for that is exactly what you would imagine people used it for.
That does not make absolutely any sense at all. Why would they care about what people in private use controllers for? Why would they care enough to actively program something preventing that?
It’s Sony, a Japanese company.
Why would they care about what people in private
Lol. Lmao, even.
Sony cares a bit too much about how people use the things they own that Sony made.
Japan is famous for its laws and customs regarding nudity, sex, porn, accessories, etc… Anything you might expect a stereotypical prude to clutch their pearls over, really. It’s simply gasp too obscene!
Sony: “How dare you even think about using our controller for that”
Hitachi: “Have I got a product for you”
Ah yes, Japan where Hitachi is from, famously not a company that made a magic wand.
Hitachi ceased production of the device in 2013 due to concerns about having the company name associated with a sex toy. Vibratex convinced the company to continue manufacturing it under the name “Original Magic Wand,” omitting the Hitachi name. In 2014, the company used the name “Magic Wand Original.”
To be fair, it’s probably a reasonable marketing decision to not have your industrial and home equipment company best known for its sex toys. I get where that came from.
not a vibrator, it’s a “personal massager” and how dare you suggest such a device could be used sexually!
On a serious note if you have a really bad cold, the magic wand pressed between your eyes while your face down will drain THE FUCK out of you sinuses and basically instantly clear out your head.
I suffer frequently from bad allergies bought the magic wand originally as a sex toy. Figured one day while suffering from a head so packed full of mucus that I wonder if it would help
HOLY FUCK DOES IT HELP
Fun fact that’s on sale right now on Amazon!
Japan is famous for its laws and customs regarding nudity, sex, porn, accessories, etc… Anything you might expect a stereotypical prude to clutch their pearls over, really. It’s simply gasp too obscene!
That really isn’t the case though. Love hotels, “gentlemen’s clubs”, and other adult institutions are heavily advertised, and sex toys can be found almost anywhere – drug stores, superstores, even connivence stores.
Most likely the motor will overheat since it’s not designed to run continuously
Doing “that” then trying to make a warranty claim.
I don’t know if OP’s claim is true, but I could see a company doing that to try and prevent unintended uses so to prevent damage/malfunction.
It matters as soon as people record themselves using it „wrong“ or tutorials go viral. Especially for a company that is really concerned about its public image like Sony.
Something not designed to be running all the time would be damaged by running all the time…
Got a source for that? It’s pretty easy to manually make controllers vibrate until you tell them to stop
Didn’t know that. I would have guessed the reason is to save battery or stop annoying people when it isn’t within reach / you can’t turn it off.
Talking out of your ass like this must get you far in life. You’re quite good at it.
How long is “a while?” I added this to a game but never tested it beyond a few minutes. The player can toggle it on or off, it is intended to stay on until toggled off as I did not add a timer to it.
Also, if there is a restriction at the firmware level, I suspect the reasoning would be as more of a safety measure to prevent excessive motor wear or battery drain.
Can’t you just find the interval it cancels and retrigger vibration right after it cancels?
DS4Windows can make a DS4 vibrate for at least like 60 seconds…
The S in PS5 is the first S in “fascist”
Idk if borderlands is on Playstation but in 2 and 3 moxxie gives you a gun that turns your controller into a vibrator
Play borderlands 2 and get the guns from moxxi one of the vibrates constantly when equipped
Nice try, Randy.
My bad… I know borderlands 4 is a disaster can you all please just focus on the fact that at one point we did make a decent game?
As I played it with mouse and keyboard, I never got to experience the rumble effects of Moxxi’s gear.
long and hard
