Partial controller support on Steam means that a game might need a keyboard and mouse for installation or for some parts of the gameplay. Think of it like having a friend who's really fun at parties but sometimes needs a bit of a rest. So, you can play most of the game chillin' with your controller, but occasionally, you'll need to wake up your keyboard and mouse for the full experience.

Partial controller support is Steam's way of saying, "Hey, you can use a controller, but it's not going to work for everything." It's like being invited to a pool party but finding out you can only dip your toes in.

I've played games with partial controller support, and it's hit or miss. Some games play fine, but then you hit a menu that's all, "Nope, I need a mouse!" It's manageable, but always check the game's forums or reviews to see how it plays out in that specific game.
