Terrible controller.
Even in games that are suposedly compatible it doesn't work very well.
ie camera control in Mad Max. When using the left thumbstick, the right trackpad doesn't work.
When pressing down on the trackpads (ie as directional keys) it just has terrible feedback and you have to press pretty hard down. Like it's a defective mechanical keyboard or something. They are also way to big to use as directional keys.
On most normal controllers you don't have to reposition your thumb when pressing up-down-left-right. Just look how big it is in the pictures and how far you have to move your thumbs.

The triggers are to 'deep' aswell. You have to pull them pretty far and give very little force-feedback besides the hard clacking when pulled in all the way.

The thumbstick movement range is just a bit too big to my liking. but that could just be me, not a flaw with the cotroller.

If this was $5 you might consider it, but at this price you are way better off getting a PS or Xbox controller. Those are perfectly compatible with Steam and Steam Link.

@ReDiR Haha yeah, I've put XB1 thumbsticks and a 2000mAh battery for double battery life in my PS4 controller and it's my personal favorite of all controllers.
I don't get the Steam Controller. I just use KB/M for games that don't have controller support and are designed for KB/M in the first place.
