How are the controls terrible? Have you looked into modifying them at all?

Nope, I've been meaning to do that. But honestly I'd expect the best controls to be picked by default, why am I expected to go hunting for community controls?

Everyone has different preferences, it would be silly to not customize things to fit your wants and needs better. Good defaults are important, but when they're tailored to a large group they can only be so good.

Frankly because the developer is not incentivized to provide a useful controls specifically for the Steam Deck. Some go the extra mile, but from what I’ve seen a lot of them just hurl the default game pad mapping. Try checking out the community mappings!
