Help us translate Steam









I mean, I'm not going to say no to more physical buttons, I just don't feel they're all that necessary... What REALLY needs to happen is the controllers need to get full support in the steam controller configurator. Per Game customization & VR overlay(s) would account for more than just console ports. Everything you get with the Steam Controller in terms of software functionality, you should have for the wands/knuckles. Simple.
they also need backup wrist straps... I don't trust that thing at all... IT looks about as secure as it can be (pretty secure) but until I see some beefcake doing sweaty karate chops, I don't trust it.
Other than that, I'm nothing but stoked.

There are other issues like not as easy to make a "one size fits all" glove.
There is also the issue with gloves where to put buttons and also the issue of with gloves, well, no tactile sensation.
With the knuckles one can feel like holding something and letting go of something.
Don't want to talk all glove and other options down, these are interesting for example: https://youtu.be/Sif7cY8qwjM , more force feedback sensations, but will probably take a while to bring to market.
For now, the upcoming Knuckles already seem like a quite big step forward compared to the previous controllers (which were a revelation when first released in first place).
I imagine these types of knuckles are also what i would like to use in AR use cases in the outside world, too.
