I really hope it becomes more mainstream. It’s really a game changer (literally)

I don’t have mine yet, but I do have a Steam Controller, and it just tickles me how excited people are by the gyro controls! They’re great, aren’t they?

I started using gyroscope while playing pubg newstate on my phone with touchscreen controls. At first I was like, gyroscope? That sounds like a dumb gimmick so I didn’t try it.
Then I played a round with some teenager who was obscenely good at the game and he got real with me and dispensed knowledge to my elder millennial self and was like shut up and just turn gyroscope so it’s always on and get used to it.
I realized I like many old people don’t know shit, so I tried gyroscope in earnest and haven’t looked back since lol.
It really is the biggest leap in video games to happen in my life time since console shooters became the huge thing with games like halo and cod.

Same! I’ve been playing since it came out, and Pubg mobile’s control scheme is honestly so innovative. I’m glad that other mobile fps have been following suit. I can look you dead in the eye and say that I’d rather play pubg on my phone with gyro always on than on console with without gyro every single time, without question. When you get good at it, it’s legitimately as good as a mouse.
