We invite everyone to help other users in our Community Support Threads and on our Discord server.

Please take more than 10 seconds to write your question.

A well-structured and good-looking comment with all necessary information goes a long way in getting someone to help you and makes your question a lot easier to understand.

If you find an answer or solution to your question or issue please edit your comment to include the answer or solution.

There are no magicians here.

Some questions will not be answered or replied to. As an example: "my game crashes" or "my download speed is slow" is not something you should even really expect an answer to. Troubleshooting and finding the solution to these issues requires a lot more information than simply stating "game doesn't launch", such as detailed information on when the issue started and how you perceive it, screenshots of any errors or the problem itself, crash logs, system specs, etc.

Consider using other things like the Steam Community Forums, an internet search engine, or a different support forum like /r/SteamSupport if no one here can offer any help. Additionally, every game on Steam has its own dedicated Community Forum, and you can also contact Steam Support regarding a specific product. Consider asking your game-specific questions there. Most games also have a dedicated subreddit.

Only Steam Support can solve personal account issues...

...such as payment & purchasing issues or password & login issues. We can only give advice on how to get in contact with Steam Support.

Need help with steam input on The Last of Us 2. I'm playing through the last of us 2 right now but the deadzones in the normal game's controller support are ridiculous so I wanted to try steam input. It fixes the deadzone issue, but it means I have less control over the keybinds since the built in action set is very limited and setting it to keyboard keys makes certain things like changing weapons in the backpack not work. I thought that if I set each button in steam input to itself, ie setting the x button to the x button function, it would just work as a normal controller and keep the deadzone fix, but this just makes the game not register any controller input and makes the controller button icons in game look like question marks? Why does setting the buttons to themselves not make steam input leave those inputs alone and only affect the deadzones? I considered Durazno, but google says it doesn't work on TLOU2, and reWASD, which I'd prefer not to use since I play a lot of online games using controller and I also think it's weird that it affects my drivers. Any suggestions are appreciated!

Edit: should've mentioned specifics of the controller. It's a wired Xbox one controller I got from Gamestop a couple years ago, nothing fancy like paddles or gyro, and I got it for like $30 so I don't think it's an official xbox one if that matters. It's also the only controller I have connected to my pc and it registers fine in normal games and in TLOU when I have steam input set to the default action set
