I know it got a lot of hate at the time, and much of it well deserved, but for many games I think the steam controller was one of the best.
I quite enjoyed mine for Rocket League back in the day, the remappable controls were quite nice.
Currently I use a SCUF DS4 for my Linux gaming and while I love the Controller in theory, the inability to remap the paddles to a custom button chord instead of just a button that's already on the controller is frustrating.
Steam Controller 2 is on my must buy list.
It was the only controller I could ever play first person games with!
Track-ball mode on the right TouchPad is just... chefs-kiss
I love my steam deck but I'm extremely disappointed by the TouchPads compared to the steam controller
I never really used mine much, but it was solid and innovative...I should dig it back out and mess around with it again...
