  Yeah, I’ve been playing lot of 2d platformers on my Deck or button mashers like the Yakuza collection where I’m less likely to miss touchpads.

  I use dual touchpads for games like Doom Eternal, Left 4 Dead 2, Spin Rhythm XD, The Finals, etc.

  I’d be sad to lose the left track pad since I use it for movement in games like Dying Light and Finals.

  Touchpad is great for turns. Example here of 180 turn demo with my Steam Controller. And I use that with gyro to play games like Doom Eternal, Left 4 Dead 2, Spin Rhythm XD, The Finals, etc without aim assist.

  I’m the minority that wishes the controller would have the same layout for the touchpads with it being large, circular, concave, and in the same upper positions.

  I use dual touchpads on the Steam Controller to play games like Doom Eternal, Left 4 Dead 2, Spin Rhythm XD, The Finals, etc.

  But, on the Deck I did not find the touchpad good for those games due to the shape, size, and placement so it turned out as being as useful as the dualsense with it becoming more a joystick controller than a touchpad controller I wanted to use in the same way I use the Steam Controller. Been hoping for years for a proper Steam Controller with upgraded gyro and 2 additional grips, but looks like it’ll never happen even if Valve came out with a new controller when it comes to a dual touchpad controller I want to use. Would be more a xbox/sony controller alternative.

  Do you encounter the same issue in desktop mode too?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨An Easy Way To Copy A Controller Layout Configuration From One Game To Another⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Simplest way I think is saving the controller layout as a template and then you should be available to see in all games when you go to templates.

  I do this for the Steam Controller where I saved a general template to use across games so I don’t need to reconfigure every single part from scratch.
