Since getting my Steam Controller, I’ve been playing docked much more, and was curious how well it works for everyone else.
minus-squareDariusmiles2123@sh.itjust.workslinkfedilinkarrow-up6·edit-211 days agoI play some games docked like strategy games (on the computer screen) or family games (on the family TV) and it works fine. Where it would be problematic is if I also played these games in handheld mode as I would have to change quite a few settings. It would be nice if the Deck could switch between docked mode (using more power with better FPS/resolution) and handheld mode automatically. In a way you can do this by switching between the game profile/general profile, but it’s just a workaround.
