      I had a Dualsense for my computer just because it has the best D-pad

      Then I got Returnal and experienced the haptics and triggers and HOLY SHIT. I tried a keyboard and mouse and the game felt FLAT. It really is incredible! Pacific Drive also takes full advantage of it, the brake trigger feels like and actual car brake and the accelerator trigger rumbles and vibrates with the haptics as you go.

      Absolutely fuckin dope.

        Do you need to do any config to use the adaptive trigger on PC? And I assume it mainly supported on Sony’s first party title ?

          No extra confit, it just works! It has to be plugged in, though, and it only works work certain titles (pretty much only Sony stuff. I can’t remember if pacific drive is Sony?)

            I’ve looked at some lists and it actually supported by much more games than I thought, I don’t think Assassin Creeds is Sony title no?

            Sony’s rep kinda iffy around repairability though, how long is yours ?

              I’m not sure, I haven’t played Assassin’s Creed since the first game :c

              I have two controllers and my oldest is two years old or so, and I have had zero issues with them personally! I treat all of my stuff reeeeeeally nice, though, so I don’t usually have issues with things.

      Honestly, it’s still the F310 for me. I have mine since the early 2010s and it’s still working perfectly. Those things are built like tanks and between XInput and DirectInput are compatible with just about any PC game of the last forty years, no extra software required. Also, they’re dirt cheap.

      Honorable mention to the F710, the wireless version. While Windows 10’s USB stack unfortunately broke compatibility with it (causing randomly dropped inputs), Linux does not have that problem.

        I have two and I can’t vouch for the “built like a tank” since one of them once in a while decides to drift around.

        Still 110% worth it for the price.

        • Could just be dirty. The only time I had weird stick issues was because a hair got caught under the right stick and kept making my aim jump around willy nilly. They’re pretty easy to take apart and put back together if you have the right screwdrivers.

      I had an F310 and I disliked it haha. Never found it to be ergonomic.
