>Steam deck will outsell Nintendo switch>Steam Controller will be better than Xbox 360 oneWhy /v/ is so obsessed with being wrong?
>>737925181We trained them wrong on purpose by grooming them into pc gamers... as a joke
>>737925237>Unironicly thinking console master raceAre you ok anon? Who hurt you??
The controller is objectively better than the Xbox one on every wayYou're blending your muh sales cope with discussions about quality
>>737925181>symmetrical sticks
>>737926242I literally never minded these on PlayStation, or steam deck.Xbox fanboys
>>737926291Some people don't mind anal beads inside their ass, doesn't make that shit any more comfortable
>>737926403>Comparing anal beads to a stick moved slightly You are THAT comfortable with anal beads anon???
>>737926242God this is such a fucking non-issue, you could just use one of the trackpads as a joystick if you really want that asymmetric feel
>>737925382xbox and snoys are terrified people might buy their overpriced slop a little less
>>737925181The steam controller is better than the Xbox controller....
>>737926845I think this might be it, and not even exaggerating. I'd never find a need to use another controller...at least maybe until they get gaming brain implants
>>737925181>Steam deck will outsell Nintendo switchOnly retards believed this>Steam Controller will be better than Xbox 360 oneThis is true though, Xbox Controller is and has always been shit.
>>737926845Snoys seem fine, it's been Xfags that's been losing it lately since Xbox is in the shitter.
>>737925181>Steam deck will outsell Nintendo switch Sales don't equal quality. Normalcattle are both numerous and retarded. I don't think anyone even believed this. It's just made up by tendies because they're desperate for ANYTHING to dunk on the superior 'eck with.>Steam Controller will be better than Xbox 360 oneThis is just true.FUCKING LET ME BUY IT ALREADY GABEN YOU FAT OVERWEIGHT ROUND BULGING MASSIVE TOWERING SUBSTANCIAL LUMPISH INFLATED LARGE IMPOSING MOUNTAINOUS COLOSSAL PLUMP GINORMOUS HUGE MONOLITHIC WALLOPING CYCLOPEAN MEATY CORPULENT MONUMENTAL HULKING BOUNDLESS LEVIATHAN BLUBBERY HUMONGOUS VAST GIGANTESQUE OBESE IMMEASURABLE MONSTROUS VOLUMINOUS IMMENSE PUDGY ELEPHANTINE SIZABLE BROBDINGNAGIAN FLABBY HEAVY OVERSIZED CONSIDERABLE HEFTY BLOATED TUBBY BIG-BONED ROTUND GARGANTUAN WELL-FED LARDWHALE NIGGER

>>737928771Good thinkg it has xinput as a fallback then.Oh shit my bad. I forgot it doesn't work that way on microshaft hindus. Too bad, but I don't really care since it works on my machine. Wincucks deserve it.
would that have worked?
>xbox and ps controllers are so shit, this overpriced garbage is considered a good dealValve is obsessed with putting touchpads on everything. The original HTC Vive wants weren't even going to have touchpads until someone at Valve forced it.You're paying $100 for a chink controller with touchpads. The triggers are shit. The dpad is shit. abxy is shit. You can get a 3rd party controller with tmr sticks, better triggers, mechanical button switches and all the same latency/polling rate benefits for $50.
>>737926845there should be a standalone app/driver that supports steam controller outside of steam, period.
>>737925181Reminder that the steam deck sold as much as the n-gage and /v/ treats it like the biggest success ever.There has probably been more shill threads about the deck than units sold
>>737929719It was sold out for the stupidest long time dude.That's pretty fucking good.
>>737929695There is. You can download it at kernel.org.
Real men wait for pic related
They're miserable losers who couldn't integrated into society so they cope by being contrarians and pretending their shitty alternatives make them special
>>737930097I would actually like to see people play non VR games with those. Imagine if it works in Dolphin. That would be awesome.
>>737930110Are you implying a bike is a worse alternative to a Tesla Cybertruck?Dude.
>>737926845kek, console sisters...
>>737930094i heard about it, but i don't know details, if there's isn't remapping feature then it's fucking sucks and doesn't count. Valve should release it for linux and windows. (There was a time where they promised to release steamvr as openvr for use outside of steam, never happened, but as i understand it isn't even an issue because there's openxr now and modern steam vr uses openxr now, but i don't know what is what and which set of features they both cover, but whatever)
>>737930110cope
>>737929695Valve will never allow steam controller to work without their DRM.
Valve is the apple of gaming
>>737930097Looks like absolute ass to balance in your hands
>>737930350I don't know about WIndows but it works out of the box on Linux.
>>737930418You can't change your controller settings without Steam, stop playing dumb.
>>737925181>say wrong things>WHY ARE YOU LIKE THISKill yourself OP we know it's you.
>>737930350Nah, there are third party solutions for old steam controller, and there will be for new one, 99% sure. And valve will do nothing about it.
>>737930442>You can't change your controller settingsYou don't need to. Cope.
>>737930110Are you seriously comparing steam guys to vegan? We don't CARE if YOU want to be a console tard, but arguing consoles are better is objectively funny
Valve had the absolute nerve to make a propreitary CONTROLLER of all things
>>737930548People are already defending it, so guess it was a good business decision
>>737930548This isn't their first. You could even call it third if you count steam deck.
>>737930528>Are you seriously comparing steam guys to vegan?Are you seriously don't?Literally 90% of /v/ circlejerk shitposters like anti sjw, anti censoring, behave like annoying vegans
>>737931243>anti sjw, anti censoringGo on break shill, you need to study your American culture again.Left wing aren't anti censorship.Also its literally tons of people excited for a new product. Its happened hundreds of times before.
>>737926776>just make your grip even less ergonomic than the garbage bottom symmetry with valves useless trackpads
>>737931741This isn't a problem for steam deck, which is even bigger.
>>737931798Discontinued Deck doesn't have lower PS style symmetrical sticksit's closer to the Wii U gamepad
>>737930548What's XInput again
>>737931872Something outdated that's emulated by steam input anyway.
>>737931857I'm not noticing a noteworthy difference in stick placement on deck and controller. This is literally nothing
>>737926242They're objectively better, but the best choice by far is having swappable controls so that you can adjust where the face buttons and sticks are.
>>737925181who cares, where the hell is the steam frame already?
Playstation and Xbox will die before Steamobjective truth
>>737932229I'd believe that, unless they did some absolutely bastard plays. Free market wise, absolutely
>>737930350they already did saaar :)its not DRM but you are a dumb pajeet who doesn't knowthe driver is up on SDL so anybody can make it.
Tell me a good controller without this Gaben DRM shit.
>>737932601The new Steam Controller. Though it's not out yet.
>>737932601There's no drm. First steam controller had software to run it without steam.Its just the PRIMARY software.Its a software based controller after all
>>737932524Yeah...thats why I labeled the controller as using gameinput...and faking xinput to connect to the older stuff...
I just hope that next gen controllers are bit more than DualShock 2 clone with gyro
>>737932721>First steam controller had software to run it without steam.This is a proprietary thing, there is no software that would work with this controller.
>>737932968Steam literally hasn't acted this way so far, with old steam controller, deck, or anything.Mod it however you want, they don't care.They aren't Nintendo
>>737925181>Nintendo Switch 2 will be more powerful than the PS5 Pro!!/v/ is adicted to being wrong.
>>737926242>Tfw born with symmetrical hands
>>737933368>They aren't NintendoI can connect procon or joy-cons to pc and play games that support them without any third-party software, but with steam controller I can't play any game without steam.
>>737933504>I can connect procon or joy-cons to pcWhy would anyone do something that retarded?
>>737933504>with steam controller I can't play any game without steam.Wrong. It works as a normal controller without Steam running. You just won't be able to use the extra features or configure it.
>>737932968>>737933504I use sc-controller to configure my original Steam Controller, you don't need to use Steam.If you don't want to have to use proprietary bloatware, then stop using an OS designed around proprietary bloatware.
>>737933558Emulator, or for gyro.
>>737933564>It works as a normal controller without Steam runningWhy are you lying? It doesn't work without steam.
>>737933654Why are you lying? I works without steam.
NintoddIers are getting desperate after a whole year with no Switch 2 games.
>>737933504>I can connect procon or joy-cons to pc and play games that support them without any third-party softwareNo, you can't.>yyyes i canNope.You can use Steam Input to make them work OR use BetterJoy as drivers.They don't work without it.
>>737933627>or for gyroYou've been about to do that since the PS3 controller, pretty much every contoller has that now.
>>737933558Switch pro, is literally the best gamepad on the market...
>>737933723Launch Hades 1 or 2 without steam input and you'll see that the game works natively with both nintendo and playstation controllers.
>>737933504>without any third-party softwareDo we need any more proof that tendies don't play games on PC?
>>737933792Hades incorporates BetterJoy libraries in the game.Playstation controllers don't need drivers.
>>737933761>High latency bluetooth>Potentiometer sticks>Digital triggers>Best gamepad on the market
>>737933761Stick drift says otherwise.
>>737925181It will sell out day 1 and you will cry
>>737933504This is because the pc lets them.And because Nintendo won't let the steam controller.
>>737933761The Switch 1 Pro controller is whatever and not worth the $75ish asking price at this point. The Switch 2 Pro controller feels extremely nice in the hands and the sticks feel really good too, but it only works on PC wired right now and all of this >>737933875, while not being worth its original day 1 price of $75 let alone the $90 it costs now.
>>737933919>pro>stick drift
>>737933761Its not even the best for its price. 40 dollar 8bitdoultimate is better.
>>737925181Controller for adults. Everything else looks like children toys in comparison.
>>737934214Why would adult want dpad to be in that position compared to stick?
>>737934312...
>>737934312for real games
>>737934071Yes? Switch 1 Pro controller has stick drift. If you've bought one on release there's a chance it's drifting right now.
>>737926242Yes, just like god intended.
>>737934386I genuinely don't understand the autism on stick placement.Either one is whatever.
>>737934594Symmetrical are legit worse.But, you can get used to anything, including anal beads.dpad and face buttons don't have the same value. Face buttons are usually being assigned to actions, while dpad is just for scrolling menus/items/other minor shitSame with right and left stick
>>737930528vegans are unpopular contrarians shilling garbage no one wants, like pc shillsconsoles are like meat, they're convenient and most people like themmuch like vegans, pc shills can't enjoy anything in silence, they have to make their interest in an unpopular choice revolve around whining about the popular choice, they can't claim to enjoy anything without whiny comments on how the popular thing is bad in comparisonthey shill and beg everyone to join their cult and can't live with the fact that people prefer the popular choicealso they can't stop talking of how they can replicate/emulate the experience of the popular thing, to cope with the fact that their unpopular alternative is shit and they need to copy the popular thing to have anything to enjoy
>>737934594Symmetrical is better for D-pad-centric games. Asymmetrical is better for analog-centric games. It's a matter of where your thumb naturally rests. Hence why swappable controls are the best.
>>737935592>Symmetrical is better for D-pad-centric games. Asymmetrical is better for analog-centric games.desu it's more like asymmetrical is shit for d-pad-centric games, but symmetrical is still good for analog-centric games.and clawing is pretty much impossible with asymmetrical
>>737935271>while dpad is just for scrolling menus/items/other minor shitTendies have been living with shitty dpads for so long that they actually believe this. Using control sticks when in instances where a good dpad would be optimal.
>>737935592>Asymmetrical is better for analog-centric gamesUnless your thumb is on the right analog more than it's on the face buttons, like pretty much all first person games, ace combat, souls likes ect.Only genres I can think of where asymetric is better is non-souls action games and 3D platformers.
>>737935738>using dpap for hollow knight instead of assigning more actions to it>in the game with clunky menu you need to go through everytime otherwiseWow, no wonder you are defending "symmetrical sticks"
Think about it for the second, 15 years ago, people bought xbox version of dark souls instead of ps3 one, exactly because it played better on 360 gamepad.But today, we have posts like this >>737935829
>>737935845>Using the analog stick for side scroller movementHoly scrub.>instead of assigning more actionsYour Steam input, bro?
>>737935908>Fromsoft creates unique action game controls that no longer requires you to take your thumb off camera contols>it played better on 360 gamepad

>>737935908>15 years ago, people bought xbox version of dark souls instead of ps3 one, exactly because it played better on 360 gamepadPretty sure is was because no one owned a PS3 at that point, zoomie
>>737935970>Muh sales!You seem to be mistaking mustard race and nintoddIers
>>737936014>2011>Implying that no one owned>calling someone else after that a zoomieThis thread...Holy shit...
>>737925237No lies detected
>>737928114>I don't think anyone even believed thisWere you here when the Steam Deck was announced?
>>737935829>right analogI don't play games which need this. I played some, but they're always shit. Aiming will always be better on a mouse. I'd honestly use gyro controls over the right analog stick any day.
>>737925181Nobody said the deck would outsell the switch, they said it would kill the switch, and it did by being vastly superior. I didn't use my switch once after I got my deck and ended up just giving my friend all my switch games rather than let them rot.
>>737930110I am better than you and so I will laugh at your expense. Consolepleb tears are delicious.
dpads are more important than sticks ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
>>737931243>he is for sjw and censorshipKill yourself nigger
>>737937439>Hating annoying vegans means you are sadist who kills animals for funTruly a vegan logic
>>737937559I'm not fat or retarded enough to understand your logic
>>737937021How do you move the camera on Souls games? Do you just not play them?
>>737937908Some kind of tranny logic, probably. Synthetic hormones have warped the tendie brain.
>>737935271>dpad and face buttons don't have the same valueis that why the switch has two sets of face buttons?
>>737937925>Do you just not play them?Probably not. The only "Souls"-like games I can think of that I've played are Medievil (doesn't even have right analog to aim) and Little Witch Nobeta (which was annoying to play iirc). 3D games I play on a controller have good automatic cameras or at least let me quickly rotate or adjust the camera with the L2/R2 buttons or by holding the triangle/Y/X button without me ever having to move my thumb away from the right face buttons. I never use the right analog stick.I grew up playing games which require no aiming or camera adjustments on a controller, while I played all the "aiming" games on a PC. Whenever I played PS2 games which utilized the right analog stick to swivel the camera around it was a fucking pain in the ass and I just don't play these games anymore nor have I played them in the past 10-15 years.If I had to play a game which uses the right analog stick for aiming I would play it on my Steam Deck and use gyro, assuming using a mouse and keyboard is impossible.
>>737925181>Caring about how much a product sells I buy things that make sense for me, that's all that matters.
>>737935501On a scale from 1 to 10 how fucking fat are you?Have some self awareness, lardo, you're the minority, especially on this board.
>>737938589Sales numbers are extremely important when someone has literally nothing else to be happy about, please understand.
>>737935501Pc is the majority demographic here you fucking idiotYou're a minority and you're bitching that people don't innately respect you
>>737930110Gee I wonder who made that image
So what's the best controller in 2026, as far I know all the 2025 releases were a disappointment
>>737939225Nothing changed since 2005
>>737930110>Ahah vegans am I rightAhah yeah>Ahaha nintenbabbies am I rightAhah yeah>Ahah linux fags am I rightAhah yeah>We want to choke on Elon's cum am I rightNice try but kill yourself!
>>737930110Wtf is it with retards calling steam people vegans??Can we skip to the logical (illogical?) conclusion where you say all steam users are child molesting nazi jews or something?If the shilling is going to go haywire, it should be funny at least.
>>737935501HOLY TRVTH NVKE
>>737935501Nobody cares if you want to play shitty consoles .If you haven't noticed, every thread mentioning SC turns into an SC hype thread, because general consensus is SC looks fucking cool.Its further backed that steam deck was awesome, so its basically already tested.People are excited for it, if you aren't, fine, but shilling contrarian to thread consensus only makes you look silly.
the ultimate controller but /v/ is seething because of the price as if they wouldn't happily pay that price if it were nintendo (they bought $20 gba roms and $100 virtual boy where you rent the dripfed roms)
>>737925181I never really got used to the track pads on my OG one
>>737925181>Steam deck will outsell Nintendo switchextremely delusional. its time to hop off the drugs, sweetie
>>737929513>WARNING: NO CONNECTION TO STEAM. DISABLING CONTROLLER.
>>737941458Crying shame dude. Even just boomer shooterrs using right pad for aim(with gyro) with mode shift on pad to weapon swap on virtual menu on click was fucking amazing. Could literally always be aiming (no downtime from moving mouse), and weapon swap between 10 guns at an instant without even moving your thumb off.
>>737926845>this retarded chart again
>>737930548This was genuinely kinda shitty if true, and I hope this isn't some kind of trend.But I give Valve a break here for a few reasons:1) I'm on Linux anyway so it wouldn't have affected me even if I bought the controller.2) I don't think Valve is planning to become a worldwide controller manufacturer and lock everybody into Steam that way, so this is probably a one-off they did out of laziness and not a trend.3) They helped develop Linux for nearly a decade so on the freedom-proprietary scale they're still firmly in the green on freedom for now. I can forgive a lot for basically singlehandedly fixing Linux gaming.4) I don't plan to buy a Steam Controller anyway, since I'm fine with KBD+M for most games and Dualsense for those that need a controller.But yeah, this is genuinely kinda shitty of them.
>>737941795Doesn't do that, didn't do that with sc 1 or steam deck>>737944282Its bs, platform is open like steam deck.Literally the only reason steam is ""required"" is because 90% of it's function is actually software, and very significant software that's not as easy to recreate as default ass binds.Think of it like a gps tracker you have the right to mod, do whatever with.... but if there's only one gps system (for now) you kinda have to use that system because there's no alternative yet. And its not even out. So nobody has even had the OPPORTUNITY to make a new gps software.You could also think of it like if linux people shrieked a new windows pc "wasn't made for linux" because it didn't include linux. Not because they hate Linux, or banned Linux, or purposely prevented linux , they just didn't include it, and perhaps had a licensing conflict where they couldn't include linux without a lawsuit... but people shriek its anti Linux. Even if a week from launch you can put Linux on it. But before its even out, Linux isn't on it.Its really, really stupid, and its not even out yet...
>emulates Nintendo games on deckNothing personnel.

>>737935501That's a lot of words just to say that PCfags are often narcissists
>>737945442Is it narcissistic if you literally ARE superior?No subscriptions for online, full mod ability, do whatever you want to hardware and software, options, peripherals, biggest LIBRARY by an astounding margin....if it wasn't for "exclusives" , price, and skill issues of entering pc, consoles would have no justification to exist....
>>737945741>Is it narcissistic if you literally ARE superior?>t. narcissist
>>737945783Let me know when ps5 can plug in a dance pad, steam controller, webcam, or w/e USB or Bluetooth shit I can find, and install whatever shit I can pull off the Internet.I hate narcissists but ffs eventually you gotta admit something is better.I had an autistic friend who refused to acknowledge I was AT ALL better at anything in life, despite holding a job, getting a gf, not throwing tantrums, being more aware, problem solving skills, ect... but he never wanted to admit I might overall be a LITTLE better off than him.You remind me of that lol
>>737946067Let me know when you sort out your NPD
>>737946140I'm no Jason Thor Hall
>>737925181Is it just me or is the placement of pads way too far from face buttons? Say I grip it to use the rs and abxy, I'd surely have to move my hand down to switch to the track pad.
>>737946508Not really. Going off steam deck, buttons are almost fully forward thumb, stick is neutral thumb, pads are lower thumb.If you have nerve damage maybe, but most people its all perfectly in comfortable ranges
What's wrong with dinput? It doesn't have a button limit, does it?
>>737926242Sony GVDS stay winning
>>737926242Are just better.
>>737935915NTA but Silksong is design for stick movement, while HK was designed for dpad movement.
>>737946728>all perfectly in comfortable rangesNah.
>>737925181>Steam Controller will be better than Xbox 360 oneThat's not hard to doMany controllers are better than the xbox360 one.In fact xbox360 and xinput has held back gaming.
>>737945741>biggest LIBRARYYet so little to play. Every steamie complains about having a “backlog” because they don’t play their games or whatever.
