I still use my Steam Controllers, have two. Will definitely be buying their new iteration.

I loved the feedback and how they felt, but damned if I could ever find a practical use for them. I'm glad they're still trying.

I accepted it was going to take time to get used to it so I slapped on Skyrim (or it might have been Oblivion, I can’t remember which) and sunk 40h or so into the Steam Controller with gyro aim and using both touchpads.

Probably had it down by 5 to 10h but you know how it goes with those classic Bethesda games…

What’s crazy is my aim is absurdly better with the Steam Controller vs normal gamepad. Not quite at mouse level but way closer to mouse than gamepad.

Also playing point and click adventure games on the Steam Controller is a total dream. Best way to replay classics on the sofa.
