I still think they can be disorienting, but not having to pay so much attention to where your cursor is does mitigate this a bit. While these control schemes aren’t ideal for normal painting and puzzle solving, they work great in boss fights. You can adjust the sensitivity of the cursor, along with all the rest of the great accessibility options, but you will need to recenter the cursor very frequently regardless. After pressing said button, in my case pressing in the left stick, you lay your joy-con on a flat surface for a moment to calibrate it, then you can move the cursor around with motion just like the good ol’ Wii. To even activate the mode, you need to go into settings and assign a button to reset the cursor. That being said, it does work surprisingly well in Chicory, though not well enough for me to regularly choose it over the stick. Pointer controls with joy-cons have never felt particularly good or accurate, due to the tracking’s propensity to drift much like the sticks themselves after a while. Menu navigation with this method also feels odd, with the occasional stray input and no ability to slide through menus like the map or wardrobe as would feel more natural.
This can lead to large lines being painted between the two points, which can screw up some puzzles like those in Feast with the paint eating platforms. If you want to start painting somewhere the cursor currently isn’t, it will quickly move over to where you touch instead of instantaneously. For one, the touch screen controls oddly function more like a mouse substitute than anything. Both of these have their pros and cons, but I still find the standard, stick controlled cursor to be the best option.
