    Something similar occurred with the Steam Controller, which I loved. I’d show it to people, and they’d be like “OnLy OnE aNaLoG sTiCk, WhAt ThE hEcK?” and completely miss the point of the trackpads.

    I can play strategy games with a freaking controller from the couch. That was always the appeal. You aren’t gonna be able to do that with a DualSense.

    Also, the virtual trackball haptic on the Deck was developed for the Steam Controller. It’s surprisingly intuitive feeling.

      I’ve got a Steam Controller as well, was absolutely amazing sitting and playing Civ in my couch when I got it.

      I’m hoping that Valve will release an updated version at some point, because there’s still not a single competing product available.
