At the moment I use my 8bitdo pro2. It was kinda expensive but its a huge upgrade from my no name switch controllers and awful gamesube one from powera.
Also, the 3ds had really good controls (we don’t talk about the c stick)
The stick is better for movement, while the pads are better for aiming. And the buttons work fine where they are.
Arguably the left side pad is a bit useless for gaming itself, but its nice to have two pads for desktop navigation and using the on screen keyboard that is build into steam.
Careful now, the swarm of all 11 people who use the left touchpad for movement might hear you and eat you alive while they chant, “just try setting movement to the left touchpad. You’ll never go back… You’ll never go back
…”

Not familiar with that, is it the trackpad one?
Yes, see: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Steam_Controller
That thing confuses me
Why are the buttons below, why is there a stick if there are pads

It’s true, I’ve never gone back, also the joystick is a bit naff anyway
