So I guess this thing is good? Should I pick one up?
nah
It has its fair share of problems. Don't get it unless you want to put in the time learning the customization. I use it way more for general computer use than I do games, it's actually quite great for that, but you're not doing yourself a favor using it as a replacement for any traditional gamepad.
It's great for some games and useless for others, what do you want it for?

no get an xbone controller it's a lot better

No, only

I personally adore mine, but that may be because I'm polygon-doom tier retarded with controllers in general. like >>383173291 said it's a bit janky to get configured and working, but it's outclasses literally every controller ever in terms of quasi-mouse input and analog stick/face buttons, especially just using the computer.also it has pretty good gyro

>can't be used without Steam
imagine if EA released an "Origin Controller" that can't be used without Origin

It's okay. It's best feature is the customization. The trackpads are better for some types of games more than others for instance when I play third person non shooting games I rather use it as a digital analogue which at that point it's pretty much the same if not worse than a right thumbstick would be. But I still end up using it more because I like the way it fits in my hands better than the xbox and ps3 controllers I have. It's also really nice for older pc games that lack decent controller support that before if I wanted to use controller with I'd have to suffer xpadder which is trash. It does have it's own set of problems just like any other controller.
That's not to say I don't use my xbox and ps3 controllers anymore I do just not as much. I still think ps3 is best for emulation (anyone who shills ds4 for emulation is a faggot; the fact that it lacks pressure sensitive buttons makes it inaccurate for ps2 emulation).
Don't listen to anyone who completely gushes about it and acts like it can do no wrong or the faggots that only shit on it blindly. Both are mental manlets.
Don't do it. Nothing is designed for it. Play M&KB games with M&KB and console games with gamepad. This thing is a bastard. It's useless.

how else am i supposed to play shitty pc ports?
>>383177094
own a console instead of pirating them?

even with customization(which you have to do a lot) it's somehow never better than standard xbox controller. it's really pointless.
