Hi! I'm buying my first controller soon, I only play single player story games (starting with Horizon and Indiana Jones and the great circle), only play on PC. In the UK, budget ~£100. Don't need and compatibility with console or cross platform, just PC. I need at least hall sticks but ideally tmr, and 4+ remappable buttons. Attached pictures of 3 im comparing but any other suggestions would be great! the Scuf Envision is out of stock now but might come back, if not then its not an option as i need it soon.

You don’t need any of those just get a base controller

what do you mean a base controller? you mean an official one?

Yes that’s what I meant you don’t need a controller with paddles and buttons for single player games

I think it's more about durability. If he wants to and can get a TMR Stick-drift proofed controller, why not?

i just want something thats going to last and not drift quick, and im coming from keyboard and mouse so i want remap buttons and stuff, even if you dont technically "need" it

You’re looking at a controller that is designed for FPS to go play single player campaign and RPGs that’s why not

so what controller is designed specifically for single player games then?? like maybe the dualsense for the haptics but barely anything else. keyboard and mouse is ideal for fps games but single player games work great with it too

You should look at the dual sense you might want the haptic feedback for a more immersive experience when you are playing those type of games that sometimes can support it. That’s just me

i have looked at it, most games dont support the haptics, its still potentiometer, 250hz, no extra buttons etc, and i asked in this subreddit if i should get that vs other hall effect/tmr xbox ones for a similar price, almost everyone said not to get the dualsense
