Just an FYI, AnotherAttorney is a Zionist shill spamming anti-anti-Israel comments from that void they call a head.

Square because trackpads have always been that way my dude and can be set to a ratio similar to common screen sizes.

Not awkward at all seeing how we hold smartphones these days and the onscreen keyboards are typically in the same location our thumbs need to reach when using both smartphones and the deck trackpads.

Sure you can argue size is small but most likely the deck internals won’t allow for larger size.

I liked/like the steam controller. I’ve got four. But the steam deck trackpads have been far and above more responsive for me.

Use them a lot. For menu mouse; much easier to select menu items. For radial menus and with action layers.

Hard to tell but wouldn’t be difficult to strip down and clean up the parts for rebuild or selling.

Probably tossed because of clogged parts that are easily fixed or replaced. I’d grab them and clean it up. Go from there.

Consider reinstalling it. Delete all settings and what not. Possibly reset your entire system if need be.

These are not common problems with this collection of games.

That doesn’t pass for poutine here. Don’t generalize.

Yeah the deck takes practice to get semi decent in fps. I’ve been trying to research if it’s possible to counter recoil movements in game with the deck controls. Nothing yet but maybe someone will figure a work around.

I asked this question last well. Someone said it’s been noted and in the works with other decisions.

Counter strike works well on the deck.

Insurgency sandstorm works well on the deck. Needs to be plugged in as it goes through battery fast.

Battlebit Remastered is the latest that works well. Remap some buttons and it’s great.

I use gyro aiming on all of these (turns on with using L2 for aiming.)

I was an early buyer of the game when it just was on Ubisoft and love every second of it. Recently I’ve had problems with my PCs gpu and am unable to play it on that and ubisoft launcher doesn’t work well on my steam deck. So it’s sadly been awhile since playing it.

I got hooked on Steep and i think that they kept the feel of snowboarding pretty similar to that.

Getting other launchers to run can be tough so that’s probably why you’d think it won’t work. But to me it’s not worth the effort.

I’d go with emulating. Any PS2 FIFA game will work great. I’ve gotten WiiU roms to run well. People have gotten Switch games to work (I tried BotE but I need to organize the game files on a separate computer first and see if I can get it to work.) PS3 was a hassle to setup and won’t even work after hours of setup. Ymmv.

There are some indie games on steam you can try as well but they are more arcady.

Emulation of PS2 has been flawless. The setup is easy and you can get good looking graphics (I’m playing ratchet and clank series right now. 1080p makes the models look really nice. )

PS3 has been near impossible for me to get running on my SteamDeck. Others have said they got it working with titles being hit or miss.
