Reply to comment by AcornWoodpecker in Valve answers our burning Steam Deck questions — including a possible Steam Controller 2 by retroanduwu24
Did you say a controller is better for "point and click"? Interesting take.

A controller with a trackpad is better for it than one with only sticks, yes. And it's better for couch play than a mouse.

Totally, I played 90% of I Have No Mouth and I Must Scream with a mouse, and then replayed with the steam controller with a good map, and enjoyed it much more.
Also Grim Fandango, Ultima Underground, Magic Carpet 2, the entire MYST series, Creeper World 1, Worms. I really loved it for Half Life 1 and System Shock, flicking the right pad is very useful and intuitive in those games.
Notable controls to mention as well, the swirl to scroll for long text based games is HUGE.

Yep, TouchPad is great for mouse gaming on a thumb. Would seem weird if you were thinking of using a finger on it on a laptop but thumb with the pad grip on it on the sc is nice
