Installing and Using a joystick for WWII Online was alot harder than I thought it would be...

 

It used to be that if you wanted to fix something simple, it would take you a few tries and then  boom done, it seems like in the computer age, information age, or whatever damn age we are in now, everytime there is a "Patch" or " windows update" you can expect something to break, your wifi card drivers, your gpu drivers, or what have you, and if you dont get an update that is breaking something, you are installing some hardware to make a gaming experience better, like a joystick for flight controls, and then you have to jump through a bunch of hoops, it feels like all these programmers have just digitally duck taped all their problems in the past and now we are having to go back and refix all the shenanigans they got paid to build or fix and just robbed all the companies of their capital, ie stealing pay and not doing the job, no wonder so many companies are going bankrupt, workers are not creating value, they are destroying it.

Here is part of my experience attempting to install a joystick on a newer dell pc, with a brand new joystick, all drivers were updated, the joystick did work, but there were other issues, as seen below.
