I’ve seen how well that works😬. But I guess different people have different definitions of playable. Someone else said touchscreen is just as good as mouse🙄.
Steam input has worked flawlessly for my on both Steam Deck, and on PC with XBone controller and mouse/kb. It has literally made previously unplayable games playable (and in many other cases, just made bizarre control schemes more usable).
Why does it get so much hate? It’s an amazing tool, and unless I’m an outlier, it does the exact thing it’s meant to do with no issue.
I don’t know what you’re talking about now. The point being made was that using steam input to make a joystick emulate mouse is not a good experience for point and click adventure games compared to trackpads.
Steam controller made these games fun to play from the couch again, and steam deck made them fun to play handheld.
“Getting along” with joystick to mouse emulation might work to move a cursor, but it’s not good. That’s why many games types that were traditionally PC exclusives have new control schemes when there is a console port. Because mousing with a joystick is not a good time, it is just “making it work”.
