I really hope they give us an updated steam controller

Seriously, after having the Steam Deck for a while I'm really upset I missed out on the Steam Controller.

I think it's kinda meh tbh. The missing second joystick really makes it hard to use. Maybe I've got it configured wrong or something, but I always end up just using a ps4 controller.

I found that it depends on the game and how it's set up. I've used the steam controller on a lot of games and it worked well.

As you've considered it really comes down to how it's configured. And you have to reconfigure it for pretty much every game you play. And steam itself doesn't provide you with good configurations most of the time.

I love the controller but wouldn't recommend it because of the amount of time it takes to make it work well in each game.

A PS4 controller is just plug and play, and is what I would actually recommend to most people.
