    In what games do you actually use the touch pads and what configs do you use? I’ve literally never been happy with them and I’ve tried so so hard to like them.

      I’ve used them games that are more point and click (like strange horticulture).

      I use the default config with the sensitivity turned up to 225% (which makes the touchpad’s left-right width equate to a bit more than the full screen width); that works fine for me. I play a lot of deckbuilders, point-and-click style games, isometric RPGs, tactics games, or just generally older / indie titles that don’t have good native controller support, and it’s been a lifesaver for those.

      It doesn’t feel as good as a mouse, I won’t claim that it does, but it makes those games go from “unplayable” to “playable” and that’s the jump I was looking for.

        Ahhh yeah that makes a lot of sense. I personally play games with super high dexterity demands for aim and whatnot, and the touchpads always felt like I wanted something better. Using it just to love a cursor reasonably at all is petty much ticking a necessary box.

        I pretty much switch which games I play on the go vs at home with my mouse and keyboard.
