      It’s niche, but has its uses. As the only person who actually liked the original Steam controller, I can attest that Daggerfall is so much more fun with a controller that has a trackpad.

      I’m definitely picking it up, but honestly, I don’t see the controller selling very well.

      This is a PC game controller, and for some PC games, mouse input is required.

      Get a Xbox controller then. What’s the point of them releasing their own controller hardware if it does nothing new compared to the competition?

      I dont use my Steam Controller as often, but I admit that this way of making touchpad is the only way. It actually works!

      My partner has an original steam controller. The touch pads are honestly pretty nice for computer navigation when you’re laying on the couch. It is a horrible option for gaming though. This new one has joysticks though, so this really might be the steam controller that works well for both computer navigation and gaming.
