My use case is playing games like We Are Football 2024, the Football Manager games and others where a regular controller isn’t precise enough from the couch, since I use my TV as a monitor and how low my coffee table is makes using a mouse awkward and ergonomically awful lol
It won’t be perfect or good for precision mouse stuff
See, the problem is that the precision is essential.
Have you tried playing We Are Football with an otherwise excellent controller with hall effect sticks and everything, with the Steam input settings on the most mouselike possible?
It’s like trying to type with winter gloves on: possible to do if absolutely necessary, but it’s going to be a very slow and frustrating experience with a lot of missing.
On an unrelated topic, I used to work with someone who could type just fine with winter gloves on. She would do this all thentime because the office was so cold.

Steam Input can be used to turn your joystick on your existing pad into a mouse. You could add a button for a speed modifier.
It won’t be perfect or good for precision mouse stuff but it’ll unlock a lot of games for couch gameplay with your existing setup.

Sadly not, first time I’ve heard of it.
I’m still rocking my OG Steam Controller so I still use that for anything mouse-related on the couch.
What about a trackball mouse?
Would still need to be on a flat surface, so the poor ergonomics problem would still persist
