so...
i think i just created an infinite loop of heck
so - there's two main ways guards react to you in scientist outfit in granini gorki
they can either get suspicious of you doing stuff and tell you to go back to work
or they can get sus when seeing you using gadgets like binoculars or the croc cap
so i was screwing around and climbed up a desk wearing a croc cap
and that triggered both reactions from a guard
and then his buddy joined and went ❗
and while the first dude was playing the "wtf are you doing" animation
the other one was playing the "wtf are you wearing" animation
and since i'm playing on euro extreme - i couldn't breake out of this loop
cause any sudden movement would trigger the alarm 
you have to stay there and let them do their thing

quick question, i've been switching to pc gaming and since i already had a playstation 5 i'm using my dualsense as a pc controller. though i've heard many people say they far prefer the xbox series x/s controller, mostly bc of ergonomics. what would you guys recommend?
fathom juniper
I was firmly in the PlayStation camp of symmetrical gamepads
With both sticks at the bottom below other buttons
Always thought the asymmetrical design of xbox controllers to be super weird - it was screwing with my muscle memory
Having to put my left thumb in a different spot
HOWEVER - recently I’ve been playing a lot on my steam deck and that allows me to have all sorts of weird setups
My recommendation?
Get a gamepad that has Xbox-y x input for maximum compatibility ||(bonus points if it has dinput too)|| but also has a layout you’re used to
graceful galleon
I use series S controller for the last 3 years for pc gaming, it's really comfy. The only downside is getting used to the button prompts on screen, I grew up using playstation and nintendo buttons
who's idea is it to switch the X-Y and A-B button position

That or uh, idk how you do it on controller but you can attack and release the holding button to throw it and can be used to knock down mules
You can also use the Strand in hand to hand combat
Keep it aimed and wait for a mule to strike and you'll get a prompt to counterattack and tie him up
