Why would using a 3rd party program be acceptable? I meam, how can someone outside Valve make that but Valve themselves cannot? It’s pretty ridiculous.

Fubarberry@sopuli.xyz 1 week agoIt’s hard to say before we can try it out, but it defaults to generic keyboard/mouse controls for desktop. I haven’t seen any official confirmation if you can swap it to a generic gamepad like the steam deck controls by holding start/menu.
There’s also a 3rd party program for managing the original steam controller, hopefully we’ll see it support this one as well.

the desktop layout does indeed switch between mouse + keyboard mode and gamepad mode when you hold that button (don’t know which), but I’ve also heard of people saying that in that time the controller tells the pc that it is a keyboard with gamepad inputs, which means a decent amount of games might not recognize it properly. that might be a firmware issue that’s already fixed or will be fixed, but at the moment I don’t know how well it works. I’ve ordered it early on and seem to have gotten into the second wave in germany/europe, so maybe i can share more when i receive it in a week or so (estimated based on what the order page told me)
