minus-squareTabbsTheBat (they/them)@pawb.sociallinkfedilinkarrow-up12·1 month agoYess, the steam controller! If they sell it as a standalone I might pick one up :3
minus-squarefrongt@lemmy.zipBanned from communitylinkfedilinkarrow-up9·1 month agoI imagine they’ll sell them as a bundle and separately. I like this one better than the last, but it still looks too bulky to be comfortable.
minus-squareTabbsTheBat (they/them)@pawb.sociallinkfedilinkarrow-up7·1 month agoI’d have to see it in someone’s hands tbh :3 It doesn’t look too bad tho imo
minus-squareMentalEdge@sopuli.xyzlinkfedilinkarrow-up3·1 month agoIt looks like they basically just slapped the Deck controls into a smaller form factor. That can’t not work.
minus-squareSatyrSack@quokk.aulinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up2·edit-21 month agoPlus the four rear buttons are capacitive (like the joysticks), so they can be used to toggle gyro controls. EDIT: Actually, is it the grips themselves that are capacitive, not the buttons? I am confused about how this will work.
minus-squareTheRealKuni@piefed.sociallinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up2·1 month ago but it still looks too bulky to be comfortable. That’s what people said about the original Xbox controller, but that thing was very comfortable. Also, the Steam Deck itself looks huge and bulky at first glance, but it feels wonderful to hold and use.
Yess, the steam controller!
