What game company from your childhood do you remember with fondness? (reddthat.com)

I was thinking about how I remember Maxis fondly, and I got to wondering what other people's experiences were like!

Is your favorite still around? Are they still the same, or did they "change directions under new management?"

I love the Deck and Controller, just a heads up that the Deck "feels" slightly different from the Steam Controller. I've had a hard time adjusting to the trackpad on Deck and still haven't quite gotten it figured out. It may just be a practice thing. Basically the way I'd describe it is it's like the rotation setting for the Steam Controller is never quite right and the slightly smaller trackpad and different positioning maybe affects whatever muscle memory I'm trying to use or something.

As an example, I made the top community config for Monster Hunter Rise, but on Steam Deck it just isn't quite the same and I needed to pretty heavily adjust the settings for the mouse input, even still I can't quite get it right.

However that said, it doesn't actually matter too much, the Steam Deck overall is awesome and I'd take it any day of the week. Luckily, Bluetooth w/ the Steam Controller feels exactly the same as it did on PC w/ dongle and it's sooo nice.

Thanks for the heads up! I'm going to be getting a dock, because I will be playing it with family, and my only Bluetooth controller is the SC. 😅

When I eventually pick up MH:R, I'll be sure to check out your config, too!

Sounds like you're all set to go then!

And if you do I hope you enjoy it! I've spent a long time in the MH series and so to finally have mouse input alongside the control input... Phenomenal...
