The director of Raiders of the Lost Ark, E.T., Jurassic Park, and many more classics has long spoken about his love of video games, stretching back to 1982 when he revealed the instant thrill and ego "massage" that playing games like Donkey Kong and Tempest provided.

oh no, I'm being shot from behind, just give me 5 seconds to hold my joystick all the way to the edge and line up a shot

I agree that the touchpad isn't best for every game, but your example just sounds like your sensitivity is way too low. I used to have a couple steam controllers, I have a steam deck, and I used to play a lot of mobile shooters before I could afford a pc. In any case, I like my sensitivity to be 1 full swipe = 180° in game. Add in gyro and I'll make that about 1-to-1 device rotation to in-game rotation (or if anything a little more sensitive).
