I welcome this...I love my steam controllers so much and it's crazy the revival in their form factor .. people hated on the og so bad ... Sure the learning curve is real but I use it for everything... Yes, TF2 included.

I think the touchpads lend themselves especially well to otherwise KBM titles, like simulation or RTS games— really any game that heavily relies on a cursor. I think they’re a good option for other titles too, especially with Steam’s powerful controller configurator. I don’t deny the learning curve, though!

But the gyro features alone are game changing! I more than anything want to see it become the standard for all controllers and games, with capacitive sticks or buttons for enabling it, the way the Steam Deck has integrated them.

i forgot to mention, switching to mouse ball was a game changer for aiming!

Beside the triggers, I really did like the Steam controller. My favourite is the touchpad which makes noises which I associated with Fallout which is oddly pleasing to hear
