    ... the first few times, but then after that...

    How often are you dropping your controller?

    Frankly, I think this is their way of asking nicely, "Please, take good care of this one in particularβ€” or it'll scream like a magic white boy jungle savior, and nobody wants that, right?" πŸ€”

    "Hey Steam support uh... I was triggering the easter egg and my controller broke. Hm? Where did I drop it? From the roof."

    Also: Will it also scream if shot by a gun? πŸ€”

    I tried to read it but the Adblock pop up prevented me

  • It took me a few times dropping it onto the couch to get it to trigger, now I'm wondering what other Easter eggs are in here

    I legit hate the trend of sound designers sneaking that into media. It immediately pulls me out of the story.

    It's not a trend, it's a long-standing tradition spanning decades. It's hilarious.

    It was fine the first thirty years but now it's no longer a fun Easter egg. So many sound engineers don't think one bit about where they're putting it like in the middle of emotional climax scenes where people are getting bloodied in the face of a nigh impossible uphill battle and stuff.

    ..sounds like you're just getting old and cranky tbh 🀷🏻

    I'm 43 and the number of things that haven't bothered me for decades only to become a source of endless exasperation for no apparent reason in the last 5 or fewer years isn't enormous, but it's not zero either πŸ€·πŸ»πŸ˜„

    You're ten years or so older than me. I'm just passionate about movies.

    Why does a controller have a speaker in it?

    Plenty of controllers do. They can be used for multiplayer in place of a headset. Some games will also use them for non-world audio, like an audio log or a mission update. You can also use them in conjunction with haptics for communicating menu interaction. A different timbre of click for allowed vs disallowed, for example.

    The playstation controllers have a speaker. A lot of games use them for interesting things. Like in some games where you can find voice recorders, the recording will play through the controller as if your holding it.

    Sometimes it is so perfect, it's a feature and not an easter egg.
