I’ve never messed with gyro aiming, is it really superior? I might have to give it a try in something if that’s the case.
IMO it is definitely very superior. If you practice enough you can get pretty close to the precision and speed of a mouse for small movements.
What's a good gyro aim game? I've only used it in the new Zelda games (which admittedly was really nice to aim with)
I mostly play on a Steam Deck, which lets you use it on most games by emulating a mouse. I played through GTA5 and some other shooters with it. On switch, the others I know of are Splatoon 2 and Overwatch 2 (I think)
Splatoon
Interesting I wouldn’t have thought and now I will definitely check it out. Thanks for the answer.
It's so good you don't even notice you're using it. But when it's not available it hits hard.
its good on controller but I mainly game on steam deck and I hate it on steam deck. too heavy and hard to get the sweet spot of avoiding accidental input and not having too high or too low sensitivity. I need a steam controller 2.
but yeah you can do stuff like fast/coarse move with stick and slow/precision with gyro and do compound movement of both at the same time, for example tilting against the stick if you overshoot or with the stick if the aim comes short, or adding up or down hairline adjustment on gyro while doing just right or left on the stick. weird at first but I can do it better than mouse aim on controllers with good implementaion.
