[@AG-ur1lj]

@@TheNameIsSR by adding gyro, I suspect he’s re-creating the same advantage in a different way. He can snap with his arm, and micro-adjust with the touchpad. Thats the _real_ advantage of MnK. It’s the movement & looking around you do when you aren’t fighting. No amount of aim assist will change the gap in the ability to move and fly around like you can with a mouse on any FPS. Aim assist can make the balance of a game super janky and complicated, but it can’t make up for the fact that with a mouse I can 180° nearly as fast as my reaction time.

[@danielvandusen5724]

Actually, with practice, it could be even more accurate and faster than a mouse. It's not trying to replicate the way an analog stick works but how a mouse does. Gaming on your phone usually uses the left side of the touchscreen like an analog stick, whereas the right side is trying to emulate the way a mouse works. The problem is that your phones touchscreen wasn't made with these functions in mind. A perfected version using this layout is the Holly Grail of video game controllers There have been attempts to do this type of controller in the past, but none have been able to pull it off just right. And I doubt this one has either. But one day, someone's going to get it right, and when they do, PC and console players will finally be on equal footing. That is, of course, if the PC players don't stick with kb/m. If they do, then they would be at a distinct disadvantage in the kb vs. left analog stick that is more accurate and provides a greater range of movement.

For the people who are interested in this controller.... This is not a normal "controller". It plays as if you plugged in a mouse and keyboard. So if your console or game is not compatible with mouse and keyboard, then this thing won't work for it. Saw this on Amazon like a year ago... it is mostly for PC gamers looking to use a controller.

[@vitalsignscritical]

Seems good maybe to use for games like quake 4 since they have no native controller support and xbox controller input (+ things like steam imput) can be pretty wonky in games that were made for mouse and keyboard only on PC, like it can work. But often I find games that don't have controller support make the cursor start to float (normally towards the left) across the screen like the right analogue stick is constantly being lightly pressed in that direction.

The only controllers you need for using as an alternative to mouse on PC are: 1. Dual Sense - Gyro aim 2. Dual Shock 4 - Gyro aim 3. Nintendo Switch controller - Gyro aim 4. Steam controller - Gyro aim + Touch pads 5. Steam Deck - Gyro aim + Touch pads 6. Any 3rd party controller with Gyro that can act as dual shock 4 on pc - Gyro aim Dual shock 4 and Dual Sense have touchpads too, but their position is not ideal for use during actual aiming compared to steam controller and steam deck, so I recommend sticking to only gyro there. And yes, Xbox controllers don't have gyro support because Microsoft loves staying 20 years behind in tech.

The Switch Joycons work because they're an evolution of the Wii remote, which also can be put together into a traditional controller layout. This thing is just weird and not worth the effort.

[@bristlesthistles]

@@TheMaghorn While a keyboard and mouse is still superior to both, touch aiming is actually better than a controller joystick for FPS games so there is a benefit.

[@jedediahharper9092]

Not really, our comfort in using a controller is largely determined by our preexisting bias, most video game consumers view controlling video game through a dogmatic lens believing what they are most comfortable using must be the best option for control. This point becomes pretty obvious in the FPS community, where Analog aiming is undeniably inferior when it comes to the accuracy of the controls when compared to point and click or aim and shoot and no where near as fast as even gyroscope aiming as we see in competitive Splatoon where teams not adopting gyroscope aiming were being left behind in competitions.

[@BortaMaga]

steam trackpads look too small for anyone other than extremely high sensitivity players

[@axelprino]

@@BortaMaga their surface area is roughly around the same one than a thumbstick can travel, right? How is that too small? They're meant to be used with the thumbs while holding the Deck/controller itself, so making them as large as the trackpad on a laptop doesn't make much sense. It'd be the same problem as when trying to tap on something on the other corner of a modern smartphone's screen, the thumb doesn't reach that far without repositioning the hand itself and that causes one to fumble around in order to not drop the phone itself and in the end one just gives up and holds the device with both hands. To me making them smaller seems like the right idea ergonomics-wise, specially when taking in consideration the size of a Steam deck itself since it's quite the chunky handheld device.

[@BortaMaga]

@@axelprino well yeah, a thumb can reach so far when you reposition your hand just like how low sensitivity mouse players move their entire arm while making big movements, that's normal. You still fully hold your phone/controller with your left hand and some part on your right hand so there's should be absolutely no concern of dropping your phone/controller. As someone who has experience playing FPS games on mobile, trust me when I say an ideal trackpad size for FPS aiming should be slightly more than half the size of a smartphone nowadays (at least horizontally), unless you never make big movements like 180 degree turns in one sweep or you're an extremely high sensitivity player.

First person to make a gaming keypad (i e razer Tartarus) with a functioning analog stick is gonna make alot of money

[@crisbowman]

It either sends WASD, or it sends analog stick output. Doing both fucks with your phone's software.

So the steam controller wasn't good enough but this trash is? I hate society

[@TheMaghorn]

@@Left4Cake So, this is flat out untrue. For starters, you can plug any USB keyboard and mouse into a console and it'll work, but also the Steam controller was very well made and once people got their hands on it the thing was almost universally liked. Linus even said it was about as good as a keyboard and mouse for the games he and his team tested it with.

[@notqunt1671]

@@Left4Cake yeah bro that's straight up untrue, I own a steam controller and while they look cheap they are incredibly well made controllers, not to mention how it was made for you not to have to sit at your desk while playing games like Civ6 or cities skylines which it's phenomenal at doing while also giving motion controls for FPS games which is just objectively better than twin sticks, and i have an Xbox that has a surprising amount of compatibility for Keyboard and Mouse like you can just play allot of games on keyboard and mouse. I've never even had an issue with my steam controller which was also fully wireless unlike this piece of shit. Let's not forget they were made to go alongside steam machines which were made to be living room units, the steam controller was almost necessary for something like that. The steam controller did not get the fair shake at life it deserved and thats obvious with all the new stuff coming out that's just ripping on its whole deal, meanwhile they all feel worse than the OG.

I think your missing the point. He's saying that it's hard to get used to but it's comfortable to use once you do.

So, a cheap version of the Steam Controller.

[@Ektuma]

Not quite it seems more like a better version of a controller for me no more analog stick rather a touchpad that works like a phone touch screen

[@12inchsoft]

​@@Ektuma the word you're looking for is track pad

This looks very unique. Really has me wondering how good this would be. Gonna consider purchasing!

I once thought of a controler used as a keyboard, with diferent buttons acting as keys; seems like someone had the same idea

[@devanshshah1]

worst of both worlds

[@_anlim309]

you know it's a shit controller when you have a god damn mousepad as a right stick. why do you think steam controller fails?

[@bristlesthistles]

it's not that bad of an idea actually, touch controls are better than a joystick for aiming but mouse is still the best

[@adamthomas7784]

This seems overly complicated, and stupid
