Now, I know many of you here would probably scoff at the idea of using a controller to play your PC games that are controller-supported, but they feel the most comfortable to me so that's what I use to play games. Like everything else, there's a ton of choices out there for controllers, but I'm having a really hard time deciding on what will replace my over a decade old Logitech f310. I own a new Hyperkin X91 that feels great in my hands, as it's based on the look of the SNES controller, just with more modern ergonomics. Problem is it's my 2nd one -- the first one lasted three weeks at the most, before the all-important RT button became a limp mess -- and I know it, too, may very well suffer the same problem, as it's quite often brought up in Amazon customer reviews.
I've tried using my in law's XBone S controller over the past few days and noticed the LT tends to stick as I press down, and I'm having a hard time running in Battlefront II due to the mushiness of the sticks unless I press down REALLY hard. So consequently, my character tends to run in spurts
I have no experience with the PS4 controller, have been warned against buying Scuf products of any kind (besides that, I hate those damn paddle things) and while Razer makes an XBone/PC controller in the Wolverine (Tournament and Ultimate editions) only the more expensive Ultimate has bits and bobs that can be swapped, but besides that it doesn't have much going for it to me.
So then, I guess my question then becomes, what's left as far as a good, solid controller is concerned? I would build my own but I don't know how to solder, and I wouldn't know where to begin anyway.
