Comment on Valve Addresses Steam Machine Anti-Cheat Concerns, Says It's Working Towards Support

  Steam Input would work, I’m pretty sure. I think I could overload all the buttons on the back so that they do all the complex D-Pad stuff. I haven’t tested if this is possible, but I’m imagining something like: pull starting direction from the DPad, press button on back for quarter/half/full/shuriouken movement, then execute with face button. So, like, DPad-Left+R3+A does full roll starting from facing right, then A.

  Alternatively, I could load a radial menu on one of the touch pads with specific moves to execute in one click, with DPad input auto-toggling switching between directionally-correct radial menus (or maybe L3 as a manual toggle or something).

  There are lots of options… Maybe I’ll try and see what I can figure out.

    Have you tried using a keyboard for fighting games? That’s another set up that can help reduce use of thumbs, and closer to hitboxes so easier to pull off dpad specific moves.

    Something I’ve seen commonly done is wasd for movement then using the numpad rows for stuff like punches and kicks.
