Funny because I noticed the haptic feedback for the first time recently after owning my PS5 for over a year and was instantly looking for ways to disable it. I don’t trust an unnecessary vibrating motor not to fuck up the parts of the controller I actually care about and the Dualsense battery life is abysmal enough as it is

ivanafterall@lemmy.world 1 month agoThat haptic feedback on the PS5 controller is a rare feature that actually adds something to a controller. If there are third-party options with the haptics, I’d love to know about them, because they kind of spoil you once you get used to them.

It’s designed from the ground up for the haptics though, it ain’t going to break it.

I mean the counter arguement to that is the joy cons joysticks break all the time by just using them.

I don’t have a PS5 but bought a controller. The first time I was playing a game that supported that feature, I thought my shoulder buttons had broken somehow. I suddenly had to press very hard after pressing the button halfway, and it was clicking. It clicked a bit later that it was a feature when it wasn’t happening all the time, just when doing a certain thing in the game.

The touch pads on the steam deck are freaky like this. I thought my left one was broken until I used it in a game compared to the os menu.
Also, motion controls are wicked awesome in shooting games.
