MODERATORS
My reservation has come up for one of these. Do y'all recommend one? I currently use a PS4 controller for my pc and steam deck gaming (while docked to the tv)
Do you ever want to use a desktop PC or play RTS style games without a mouse and keyboard? Then yes, 100%, it's the best thing for it. Otherwise it just seems to be a really solid controller.
Yes. I love mine. Wouldn't have anything else at this point.
It's fucking great. Best controller I've ever used. If you can afford it, it's worth it.
Yes (if you can afford it, not going to change your life), I used a ps4 controller as well before, much better experience!
