      I did not say it acts as a Xbox controller, but said similar to a Xbox controller.

          I did not say it acts as a Xbox controller, but said similar to a Xbox controller.

          And GN said that it behaves exactly like Deck and SC 2015: It’s a mouse without Steam running.

          Either GN or Jeff is wrong.

            I did not say it acts as a Xbox controller, but said similar to a Xbox controller.

            Digital Foundry outright spells it out with a statement by Valve as to why: It does NOT act as a game controller without Steam running. It acts as a mouse! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VMstfBYpdmg&t=596s

            Seems like Jeff either made shit up or he accidentally stumbled on a niche scenario where it does act like a regular gamepad without Steam but if two credible reviewers say the same about it acting as mouse, just like Deck and SC 2015, this is also the reality regular customers face.
