What? The Steam Deck needs trackpads and L4, L5, R4, and R5 buttons! Without them I wouldn't have been able to play modded Minecraft properly due to the amount of controls introduced by the mods I use.

If they ever drop the track pads I'm out. It's the only reason I got the Steam Deck as I play a lot of WoW on it and they are basically required. Plus I tinker in Linux a ton too and also they are super necessary.

It also looks like we got rid of the start and select buttons as well...

I could never play Guild Wars 2 without them either, and it's one of my most played games. One of the reasons I got a Deck too.

They also seem to have replaced the Steam and QAM buttons with home (?) and menu buttons
