She offers dance battle an entire new which means

Unconventional controllers are one in every of my favourite gaming content material niches. They’re one thing I’ve loved out of the nook of my eye for years, with my private favourite being Rudeism’s full-body goose costume/controller to play Untitled Goose Game. The Twitch streamers are again at it once more, however this time the highlight is on an Elden Ring streamer MissMakkaa, and her construct that makes use of a dance pad peripheral as a controller.

Basically, she obtained a kind of at-home dance pads you utilize for video games like Dance Dance Revolution and hooked it as much as Elden Ring, which is already a humorous sufficient idea by itself. What’s much more spectacular, then, is that she’s already crushed 5 of the sport’s bosses up to now (thanks, Eurogamer), and he or she isn’t stopping there.

Other than having to do some jig when issues get intense, one other problem MissMakkaa faces with this construct is that there are fewer buttons on a dance pad than there are on a PlayStation controller, which suggests she typically has to carry out duties like controlling the digicam straight on the PC. My mind can just about solely deal with one job at a time, so it’s insanely spectacular that she’s made it this far with this setup.

Of course, MissMakkaa is used to a superb problem — not too long ago she accomplished one other Elden Ring run the place she not solely remained Level 1 your complete time, but in addition performed with one hand. And to assume I couldn’t even beat Godrick usually. Some individuals are simply constructed otherwise. Leave it to Twitch streamers to make one of many hardest video games out there even more durable.

Twitch generally is a poisonous place typically, however content material like this jogs my memory that typically players might be superior, really. The complete level of enjoying video games is to have enjoyable, and partaking in goofy challenges like this solely amplify that enjoyable.
