That’s pretty cool, I didn’t realise there were so many folks using controllers on Steam. I also absolutely love Steam Input.

I just want a steam controller 2 that’s basically exactly the same as the steam deck input scheme!

Saw a post today with the new “official” Steam Controller. It’s trash. None of the features that made the first one cool. Doesn’t even have rumble.

I assume we saw the same one but it wasn’t an ‘official’ controller, it was a 3rd party one specifically designed with steam in mind. Made by a company called Hori. Valve hasn’t announced another steam controller yet.

No, you didn’t. You saw a third party controller.

I guess the goal is to profit from confusion, and it seems like it’s working because even people on Lemmy are tricked by it. Consider the average consumer.

Tech sites say that it’s officially licenses by Steam, and it has the Steam logo on it.

Either they have Valve’s blessing on it, or Valve’s legal team is fuckin sleeping.

Apparently the Horipad’s gonna be that. I think I’ll stick with the Dualsense.
