Do you prefer playing with Keyboard or controller more, and for what type of games? (lemmy.ca)

Steam deck user here. I've done with it what I couldn't achieve with even the Steam controller: preference for trackpads + gyro for pretty much everything (FPS included) except for hotkey heavy action RPG's (Dragon Age, Witcher 2, etc).

I don't play RTS anymore. I had a falling out with them around Supreme Commander days.

I honestly wish we had a steam controller that was more like the deck. I could never really get used to the Steam controller while I love using the deck. Can't really put my finger on what it is about it though.

As do I. I'd chalk it up to the asymmetry of the Steam controller. Lack of a D-pad, lack of a right analogue stick. The Steam Deck back buttons are also far better, and 4 is twice as good as 2.
