SteamOS on my legion go for about a month now, it's been great. The future is now
How does the mouse function work on that device? Feels good? To me it seems like a really good functionality for shooters.
Tbh, I don't use it much, I'm ether playing with the controllers, using the touchscreen, or set it up with keyboard and mouse.
To use the mouse function, the charging bar(?) needs to covered for comfort, the joystick pulled off so it doesn't get in the way, and the scroll wheel feels odd to me. I think it's cool they designed the option, but I just prefer a standard mouse.
Interesting, weird that there seems to be a fair bit of friction there. I like the idea of it on the switch 2, joystick in left hand and mouse in the right seems to me a great ergonomic solution for comfortable movement plus aiming control.
I find the scroll wheel handy when I'm using the controllers attached, both for desktop mode and there are some games I use it in, like Stardew Valley. I genuinely think it's better placed for that then mouse mode.
I'm just curious to see what design changes they make for the eventual Legion Go 2
