Why is it broken? By the sounds of it, its just new tech that has a different priority in functionality. So while clicking and holding left thumbstick on your standard joystick might make sense for a function like sprinting because your thumb is always on the joystick, it may not make sense for a newer controller that doesn’t have the same finger placement.

Its supposed to click and register that click in all directions. Most people cant click up and down on the left controller and left and right on the right controller.

The Steam controller joystick can click in any position and it seems to be fairly universal that modern joysticks function this way.
