Playing Helldivers 2. My brother on the desktop on the living room TV. Me on the SteamDeck on the couch next to him. Playing co-op together.

    Aiming with a controller is just going to be terrible. I’m just not a “serious” gamer, and we were playing beginner missions (literally my first time ever playing this game).

    In theory you could probably get very good at it using the gyros but there’s a pretty big learning curve there.

    Manually adjusting the deadzones will help a lot also.

      The controls are near-exact match for match to Metal Gear Solid V, a game made for controller and kb+m. I prefer gamepad/steam deck to this game, hard disagree it’s terrible

      In general I’d agree, but on the deck why would you not use the trackpad as a mouse for anything first-person?
