We asked Valve why there aren't more Steam Controller-style gamepads designed for PC first.

      They have different controllers at different price points, but my opinion is that a first party controller should only cost about as much as a AAA game at MSRP. A controller should be 40 to 70 usd. Retailers can adjust their price. Third party manufacturers can have more lenience in how they price

        I hate to tell you, but AAA publishers have been trying to push $100+ games for a while now…

        I really don’t see how that follows, a controller and a game are different things, why do they have to cost the same. I think the cost needs to be tied to price of manufactoring

          Oops here’s my point in a clearer manner. I don’t mean to tie it to the price of a game. Im just using that as a reference point
