RetroArch never works right. Even once you get past the cores and all the other stupid bs, once you get to setting up the controls it never works right, most buttons just do not work in game, if they even work in the menus.
So many years, so much effort, all wasted.
It’s still so much easier to keep BlastEm, Snes9x, Duckstation and whatever else installed, so much faster to set up controls and most of the time you don’t even need to as everything works out of the box.
And yet plebbit will say nuhhh use muh libretro cores!!!1 so heckin’ wholesome Keanu chungus 100!!! I love my wife’s boyfriend!!!111 Thanks Reddit!!!
Lol fuck off. I’ve been in the emulation scene since long before this absolute garbage became recommended by you drooling 12 year olds. It’s not a matter of “newbie”, it’s a matter of shit design that looks and functions worse than PCSX2 did circa 2013.
This is a shitty, fuzzy program that tries to do everything but does nothing. It’s useless for arrogant morons and otherwise non-technical people like yourself without emulationstation or some hundred hour youtube tutorial, and it’s useless for actual devs and technical folks like myself who want a clear simple model of program flow and interaction between all the settings so we can quickly troubleshoot whatever issues arise and get on with our lives.
You should be using Ludo, better than RA. Link: https://ludo.libretro.com/#about
I don’t use RA at all, I just have to fix it for those who end up using it because of Reddit. Thanks for the recommendation though, I’ll check it out.
