Please don't be too sad or frustrated. I'm begging you guys to listen to reason.
This is an exact same scenario as the first steam controller. You could tell they completely rushed it to the finishing line, and they barely made enough to meet their pre-purchase obligations.
This round is going to have poor build quality, I can pretty much guarantee it, just wait until they iron out the production process, and they get into their second or third fabrication.
Also don't believe for a second that they're not going to ramp up production, the world doesn't work the way it did in the 90s, production ramps up insanely quick when there's demand.
I'm okay with not getting this version, and I'm also very trusting that when the next couple rounds are available it will be the time to buy.
I love people who make uneducated claims about products they don't know.
The first Steam Controller was a novelty and not appealing to many. Years later Valve basically perfected this controller scheme and added the missing parts of it to the Steam Deck handheld. Years later the Steam Controller 2 comes out, largely based on the excellent Steam Decks controls. It improves on the quality of various aspects, has even TMR sticks. Build quality does not feel like premium, but it feels better than your average controller.
The controller does not feel like rushed, at least the hardware itself. Software was not entirely there at launch, as it had missing features, but that was software. It is okay to be critical about a company or its products, but the critics need to be rooted in reality. It is not perfect. The biggest issue to me is, the reliance on Steam running in the background. That's why I still use a second gamepad to play anything outside Steam, without the client running in the background.
Overall I am glad that I didn't listen to your guarantee about its build quality and got fooled, because the build quality of the Steam Controller is not an issue. I hope you will get one later.
Nah, the build quality is absolutely impeccable. It feels rock solid in every way.
I have many complaints about the steam controller. Build quality isn’t one of them.
You haven't had it long enough for it to break.
I got it, say a bad word about it and you get beaten up, but you guys can't face reality.
The fuck you on about 😆
