FlyDigi Direwolf 2 Review | World's Best Budget Controller You Can Buy For INSANELY CHEAP!

[@simpletools6805]

you are the first reviewer to point out the trigger dampening in flydigi controllers it seems that it adds comfort and quality to the gaming experience

[@danielsayson841]

As good as the Direwolf 2 looks, I decided to go with the Vader 3 Pro instead since it’s your favorite controller of all time. Still looking forward to your review of it, though. 👍

[@RetroBreezeYT]

Oh yeah, great choice, you'll love it!

[@timika9814]

A long time ago I bought a flydigi wee, despite the updates it was crap, I hope today it's really better!

[@fktygglbtchbtch1384]

I like your presentation and hope your channel grows!

[@RetroBreezeYT]

Thank you so much, I really appreciate it!

[@Housestationlive]

it's very hard to find under 35 euros but with a bit of patience i finally found a store at that price and picked one.

[@RRRRRRRRR33]

Almost look like the perfect controller. I am doing a quick search, seems like there's no controller who emulates the dualsense "vibrations" of the PS5 (like, let's say the recent Ghost of Tsushima port for PC, I want a controller who can vibrate like the original PS5), these anti-drifit analogs and a turbo function... that's all I want, yet, there's no such thing. I guess the chinese couldn't emulate (or reverse engineer) the dualsense? Quality video by the way, good presentation

Apex 4

[@RRRRRRRRR33]

@@jake-ut8se found a video of a guy testing this stuff, seems like the force feedback on the shoulder triggers are working, but the vibration on the controller itself isn't. A literal spoof, have to use a external app and leave it open, it's not like the Xbox "emulation"

[@jake-ut8se]

@@RRRRRRRRR33 yeah just figured I'd give it a mention since it's the only other controller I've heard of with those similar features to the PS5. That sucks tho

[@RRRRRRRRR33]

@@jake-ut8se If the most expensive Chinese controller can't spoof the "haptic feedback" thing, I guess it will take a while to reverse engineer this gimmick. Which is curious, the PS5 is already 4 years old and their tech remain "secured"

[@jake-ut8se]

@@RRRRRRRRR33 yeah. Sony and Microsoft controllers usually end up being some of the most solid options for a long time. PS4 controllers for example are still used by many pros across multiple games. After all those companies have the most money to work with and most support from other games/companies as well.

[@F._217]

Im sorry but i downloaded the space station on my pc but i don't know how to enable the gyroscope on the phone if u know please make a video or tell me here i'll undrrstand you please

[@Sadtiric]

Looking forward to seeing the fancy-schmancy one after this review!

[@RetroBreezeYT]

It will be worth the wait. And I have more than just One Piece of that particular controller as well 🤫😏

[@synapse6474]

@@RetroBreezeYT Dang, I tried to get that one.. but they're all out of those on AliExpress/Bangood etc. 😢 Those are on sale for 2.5x their Amazon price, on ebay 😒

[@F._217]

How canyoubpair the direwolf2 with the app on phones?

[@lamnhn]

Please also do a review for the Flydigi Apex 4.

[@RetroBreezeYT]

I have it and I will definitely be doing a review!

[@joaov1774]

Does the D-Pad have a pivot so you can't press all or two directions at once? To avoid misinputs and such. I'm looking into buying this controller for fighting games, as my current controller is unreliable and cheap.

[@ExecutionerDan]

The kk3 max has a setting for 4 way or 8 way dpad.

[@mariotorres2326]

Machenike g5 pro or Direwolf 2 for retro games, platforms, 2d, fighting games ? Good job, thanks in advance

[@RetroBreezeYT]

Direwolf 2- much better D-pad, as long as you're okay with the clickiness

[@mariotorres2326]

@@RetroBreezeYT Thanks that's what I want to try. Another guys also rather DW Dpad over the g5 pro

[@AS-uq7sr]

Something that is not clear to me is if it is compatible with Steam. So if it recognizes it as an X box 360 controller

[@RetroBreezeYT]

Yes it is, and recognised as Xbox controller!

[@csolisr]

As an owner of the Direwolf 1 and the Vader 3 Pro, what do I miss in comparison here?

[@RetroBreezeYT]

Vader 3 Pro has the great trigger-stops, trigger vibration, dock and mech switches. It's definitely the better controller. Unfortunately I don't have the OG Direwolf so I'm not sure on that comparison!

[@carloareaser]

Hi, I need your help. I want to purchase a gamepad for my android phone and I'm curious what you would recommend for under 60$. The most recommended variant is GameSir G8 or GameSir X2. What do you think about this? Is it able to play most games natively?

[@RetroBreezeYT]

100% the best telescopic controller for Android is the G8. If you're looking for a true console-quality controller experience for you phone, it's the absolute best one. You do sacrifice portability though because it's pretty big. Compatibility depends on the game, but most games work well.

[@crossmirage]

How does the dpad compare to the one on the xbox series x controller in terms of feel? It's my favorite type of dpad and I'm thinking of getting the direwolf 2 in case my xbox controller dies

[@sodiufas]

Ok, made a purchase, will sub if it's really this good ;). Will be here in 2 weeks.

[@zikopro7369]

so how you find it i am about to buy

[@sodiufas]

@@zikopro7369 it's good!

[@fktygglbtchbtch1384]

Same features as 8bitdo pro controller. I don't like the dpad on the pro though as diagonals are hard to make. Will give this a try, thanks. No longer under $30, :/

[@RetroBreezeYT]

Try making a new AliExpress account- you'll get a first order discount that is how I bought one of these for $26. Look around at various sellers and for coupons too. That's just how Ali is!

[@pandemicplayseverything8268]

Please review the responses time also in each controller

[@lARBUZERl]

Автор хороший обзор, люблю геймпады этой компании, но не берите Direwolf первой версии, у нее крестовина залипает и это как понял проблема у всех. А так советую всем либо Direwolf 2 либо лучше доплатить и взять Vader 3 pro, он вообще лучший из лучших. Надеюсь переводчик правильно переведет) Автору удачи, ролик хороший

[@caim5681]

hi, I'm currently using an xbox 360 controller and it's time to try something new, I don't want a controller to play competitive games or shooters, I only play action games and RPGs (god of war, spiderman, elden ring, dark souls, final fantasy, ghost of tsushima, devil may cry 5, nier automata) my requirements are quite simple I'd say, I want something comfortable, wireless and that is of good quality (I only play on PC just in case) what controller would you recommend? I don't know if direwolf 2 is better than an xbox core controller or if the machinike g5 pro or another is a better choice for me

[@RetroBreezeYT]

Certainly not the G5. I had it for a bit and it was not very good. My absolute number one recommendation is the FlyDigi Vader 3 Pro right now. Gulikit KK 3 Max and 8BitDo Ultimate are other popular choices.

[@user-cx6rg6mr7d]

can you charge it with usb c cable while playing?

[@RetroBreezeYT]

Yes!

[@user-cx6rg6mr7d]

@@RetroBreezeYT thank you!!

[@PasaaDai]

how do i check the battery life in this controller

[@muhdzaidi3051]

Does pressing select with any face button activate anything? Because if I do so it'll always triggers a small vibration

[@RetroBreezeYT]

Yes, it switches between the onboard profile!

@@RetroBreezeYT oh thanks!

[@androidx627]

Should I buy this or Gamesir T4 kaleid for android use and why?

[@RetroBreezeYT]

EDIT: This is just which one I prefer for that use case 😅 which one you buy is up to you Direwolf 2: - Wired and wireless support - Better D-pad - Phone mount available - Silent triggers - I prefer the no-LED look overall

[@jokerdubsman5984]

Would you rather have this or Gamesir T4 Kaleid?

[@RetroBreezeYT]

Direwolf 2 all day every day.

What the sonic game is there?

​@@RetroBreezeYTthanks. I was surprised to see a shadow costume as a dlc for this game.

[@mrlazy2343]

Logitech f310 n f710 has gr8 dpad then this it's too clicky

[@haroldttw]

do kontrol freeks work on them

[@RetroBreezeYT]

I'm not sure. The analog stick caps are very wide so maybe not

[@rilkeda]

I dont think you have reviewed r36s yet .

[@RetroBreezeYT]

No, I want to though!

[@tommwaw]

Yeah... and now it's $46 on aliexpress.. geez.. typical "trick" of Chinese sellers :/

[@RetroBreezeYT]

Try logging in with a new account. You'll probably get a first-buy deal

[@funkdefy416]

Same with me, at that price point, I'd go with 8BitDo. But if I were to see it for $26, I'd consider it.

[@Treivax]

What you're describing isn't unique to Chinese sellers. Dynamic pricing is common among online retailers worldwide, including those in the West. So, I'm not sure why you're suggesting it's solely a Chinese practice.

[@AS-uq7sr]

It is currently 26 dollars (although with shipping it goes up to 32).

[@ImUrZaddy]

I literally just checked and it’s around 30 USD on Aliexpress

[@vaporwingfauxmcloud1190]

Would be fucking nice if there were ENGLISH INSTRUCTIONS for a product sold worldwide. Not everyone used flydigi stuff all their life so some of us are picking up newer stuff and no one puts out how to connect them to our android devices...

[@RetroBreezeYT]

Mine has an English instruction manual, which you can also find here: fccid.io/2AORE-FP2/User-Manual/Users-Manual-6851515.pdf Also, just note that FD are only just beginning to expand into western markets!
