    So they really just took the steam deck controls and got rid of the screen, more or less. I love it.

      I mean why change what’s already great. Works on the Deck, would be just as great as a controller, if not better since it can be used with anything, not just the Deck.

      Not going to lie I kind of wish they had kept the Dead Space that the screen created. I feel like it’s not going to be as comfortable with everything just shoved in tight like that I actually really really like the spacing that the screen on the steam deck provides

        I’d be willing to sacrifice a bit of comfort for better portability for a controller. That way it fits in my bag easier.

        Tbh, that’s the first time I heard that take. With the openness of the deck I’m sure you could somehow just use a deck as the controller though.

        With a smart TV it should already “just work”… Just get the steam link app for your TV and pair it to your deck to play on the TV and use the deck as a wireless controller. Don’t know if you can turn off the deck’s screen though.
