Ds4windows is still useful, it certainly has a few more options then what steam has integrated and ofc works for games not associated with steam. So there’s definitely still dependance on it but for games that are on steam, steams controller support is actually pretty good and has worked well for the past few years. At least is has for me, I haven’t had any issues or need for Ds4windows since like 2019
Eh not really. I find it’s uncomfortable and it’s missing what I deem to be crucial features in 2023 such as hall effect sticks, mechanical face buttons, trigger stops and rear buttons.
Not features I’ve thought much about. I’d definitely prefer to have rear buttons but haven’t felt that I’ve missed them. I’d also definitely try Hall effect sticks and mechanical buttons-- I don’t think they’d make much of a difference to me, but maybe if I tried them, I’d never go back :)
Do you have a controller in mind that has the same features as DualSense (gyro, trackpad, adaptive triggers…) and also has the features that you mentioned?
Same. I never really cared until I used them and now I can’t go back. Unfortunately there’s no one true perfect controller for me. I don’t think there are any controllers outside of Sony that reallt have a trackpad. My go to controller at the moment is the Flydigi Vader 3 Pro which has the hall effect sticks, rear buttons and mechanical face buttons but the remapping software is next to useless and the gyro isn’t as strong as a DualSense.
Dualsense edge(the expensive elite controller for PS) has everything except hall effect sticks. The stick modules themselves are replaceable and iirc gulikit said they’ll make hall effect ones
I’ve never liked PlayStation controllers. They look terrible and the joysticks on the same line have never felt good to me. Xbone ones are so much comfier imo.
Oh, I like that brand! I have a few of their SNES-but-with-sticks controllers for couch co-op and they’ve been really good for how cheap they were. Will definitely consider giving the Ultimate a try.
