    oh no, I’m being shot from behind, just give me 5 seconds to hold my joystick all the way to the edge and line up a shot

    I agree that the touchpad isn’t best for every game, but your example just sounds like your sensitivity is way too low. I used to have a couple steam controllers, I have a steam deck, and I used to play a lot of mobile shooters before I could afford a pc. In any case, I like my sensitivity to be 1 full swipe = 180° in game. Add in gyro and I’ll make that about 1-to-1 device rotation to in-game rotation (or if anything a little more sensitive).

      I mean you can increase sensitivity but then it’s terribly difficult to aim for shit. That’s the problem.

        Steam input lets you do different modes, if you’re holding the aim button, you can make the track pad much more sensitive or use gyro. Solutions for everything!
