Than you are like most mouse and keyboard players where you confidently assume mouse and keyboard is the best controd method end of story. You don’t know what you are talking about and neither do any reply guys who will try to obliterate this point with a salvo of “um actually” killer rhetorical points.

That is a Ukrainian soldier using a steam deck to control actual weapon systems real humans (likely mouse and keyboard players who have no ability to use a gamepad) are counting on to survive an actual war.

Honestly if I sound snarky it is because I have grown to love how unshakably mouse and keyboard players believe they are using the only method to play competitively. Especially in a battlefield type FPS game with aircraft, mouse and keyboard players will hilariously refuse to fly with anything other than mouse and keyboard or a crazy complex flight simulator setup with a flight joystick they talk about but will never get.

Meanwhile there is an xbox one controller sitting in the other room that in 5 minutes they could learn to pull of flight maneuvers smoothly and confidently that are next to impossible to do with mouse and keyboard…

I point this out to mouse and keyboard players directly and they don’t listen even why I fly literal circles around them.
