I hate the "Controller" part (whatever the controller) on most PC games.

I'm experimenting with it. Works quite well, except for the picking of items to build.
My little one loves running around and driving the trains with it.
Unfortunately he keeps running a quick and heavy building-train through slower / standing ore trains

Understandable when it comes to a regular controller, they're very limitedKoub wrote:I hate the "Controller" part (whatever the controller) on most PC games.

I really enjoy Steam Controller. I think it works really well with a lot of games that you would never expect to play via controller (like Crusader Kings 2, Pillars of Eternity, Invisible Inc.).
Maybe it's just me, but in case of Factorio, I just can't get over the issue of pointing at aliens to shoot at them. I tried different things and that alone kills all my enjoyment with the SC in this game. I tried different setups and I couldn't make it work for me. Luckily I have a wireless keyboard and mouse, so I can still play from the couch...

Might write a mod for auto-targeting, but driving cars is absolutely horrid as well at the moment.Matthias_Wlkp wrote:I really enjoy Steam Controller.

Let's hope for contextual action sets!

I don't use a Steam controller.
But I use a Logitech G13 Gamepad for playing Factorio - the thumb joystick comes in really handy for moving around and driving.
