just got a steam controller today, my review (coming from an xbox one controller): - all default control schemes are not good enough. - i don't know how to hold it right yet. i like my middle fingers high up the back as counter-pressure for button presses, but the natural spot runs into the trigger.

- i'm used to running around with the left thumbstick and "cheating" dpad inputs with my right thumb. with the dpad left of the left thumbstick, this is not possible here. i can set a touchpad to act like a dpad, but it's not as tactile and requires forethought.

- the extra rear buttons are nice, but if i need extra buttons for a game that detects controller vs keyboard, it seems likely to get messy since the buttons aren't really recognized without mapping to something else. - start and select are really high up. rear buttons are good replacements.

- i feel like there's enough weird stuff in here that i need a bespoke tutorial or game designed specifically for it, or i'm just gonna end up using it the way i used my xbox controller and having a bad time because it's not designed for that. steam sports resort please.
