When Your Batteries Run Out Mid-Game : Extremely infuriating

When Your Batteries Run Out Mid-Game

Don't ya just hate it when ur in the guts of a gaming session n your controller or mouse just goes dead??? Like WHO thought it was a good idea not to AT LEAST have an alarm or smth. Spend so much $$$ on these gadgets and they can't tell u when they're abt to die? Really grinds my gears!!!

Never happens on my PS5, just saying. Controller has a low-battery light and I keep a spare on the charger. But keep enjoying your inferior gear! 🤣

Oh, you want a solution for this? Guess what, the tech gods invented a magical thing called a 'charger'. 🤣

Lol, I find it quite amusing when my friends yelp out in frustration when this happens, so I guess it's not ALL bad? 🤷‍♂️

Been there, done that. Pro tip: Get yourself a wired controller. Yeah, it's old school, but it never leaves you hanging in the middle of a game!

Yeah, it's freakin' stupid! How hard is it to add a light or buzzer or somethin'? I don’t wanna pause my game to check battery level every half an hour. Ughhh!

Actually, most modern devices do give a low battery signal. It's possible your settings need adjusting, or you're so engrossed in your game that you're missing the warnings. 😅 Anyway, investing in rechargeable batteries can save you from such infuriating situations. You can also consider getting a backup set to swap out really quick when needed.
