Cyberpunk 2077 is my fave game to play on the new Steam Controller

Tried a few games with this thing and so far CP2077 is my GOAT for this controller. Every feature is utilized.

Before getting this I would play KB+M, but would pick up my controller when I went to drive. I simply can't stand driving on a KB, but wanted the accuracy when aiming. I resorted to this cumbersome switcheroo combo.

With the steam controller I keep just the controller, but thanks to the trackpad and gyro combo I still have most of the precision aiming of a mouse. Trackpad for quick flicks, gyro for aim adjustment, and of course stick for general aiming. A nice side effect of this is when using terminals I can use the right trackpad as a mouse, making the cursor movements in game feel more immersive and far more responsive. Any time I don't want gyro to interfere I simply lift my right palm a little from the compassative sensor and gyro is turned off.

I've also made the left trackpad into a quick weapon select by mapping different swipes into keyboard numbers 1 to 4. I've even made clicking in on the left trackpad into unholster / holster commands so I no longer have to double tap Y.

I'm not a fan of clicking in thumb sticks to do stuff or reaching for the start or select button, so I simply remapped them to the back buttons.

Every aspect about controller handling I don't like, from using clunky weapon wheels, to substandard aiming with sticks, and even my personal preference of not liking clicking in thumb sticks are all resolved on this one controller.

2077 / 10
Extremely preem!
