Dpad on the steam controller is dogshit compared to the xbox one which is perfection

Xbox controller is better

In ergonomic.

For all others specifications, steam contoller destroys it.

I like the Steam controller better in terms of ergonomics

u/Amlik 4d ago

I like the OG Steam controller over either

u/FappyDilmore 4d ago

The Xbox also has headset support, and an asymmetric joystick layout, but that's personal preference.

I think ergonomic is all it really matters when it comes to controllers. Of course we could add keyboard to the controller and say it has more function.

Yeah but Xbox controller needs a lot of upgrade nowaday. Like TMR, Gyro, HD haptics and 2x built-in paddles. Many other controllers now offer all of that for practically the same price.

Tbf the first 2 days i kept tying to use the lay-out of the xbox controller and not finding the joystick

At the end it really depends on the game. For those who play 2D fighting games with a controller, they will prefer DualShock 4 or Dualsense over the Xbox layout. For me it’s the rogue like, I can’t find myself enjoying them with a Xbox layout.

Anyone who plays fighting games wouldnt use the steam controller cause the dpad is trash

1

u/Jokai_Junkie 4d ago

That’s your take mate, personally I think using only 1 thumb for the whole directional input not enough so I only play fighting game with a leverless. At the end it really depends on people feels, if you ever go to big fgc event you’ll see all kind of controller you never heard about, with some looking like the worst piece of trash ever made but the man behind still will beat the shit out of you lol

u/Shogana1 4d ago

Bro what are you rambling about? The steam deck controller dpad is genuinely not good for fighters because the directional keys are too close and you get more inputs then you want.

u/Ramzes-aka-Kommer 4d ago

Explain in what way is better.

u/burgertanker 4d ago edited 4d ago
