    I was really looking forward to this, but the render doesn’t seem like something I’d be interested in.

    I need a Xbox style stick layout or my thumbs run into it each other, and I feel like those TouchPads are gonna get touched accidentally when using the sticks

    We’ll see, I’ll probably still get one to try it out, getting tired of bumpers breaking and can see utility in the track pads, especially with steam controller configuration madness possible

      Be rest assured that the same complaints were talked about the Steam Deck itself, and since I own one and have some decently sized hands, I can assure you that Valve will do all they can to make sure it is just as comfortable as the Deck is to hold!

      This is also coming from someone who found the Steam Controller cool, but I hated not having some normal thumb sticks for games that provide controller support built in.

      All in all, I think this will be a beautiful merging of a normal controller with the touch pads being a huge plus for the Steam community to tinker with and release some amazing controller layouts, just like they do with the Deck!
