PC obsession? Seems like a strong word. I'd say they're just throwing carrots. Not good carrots either, just the ones that were already destined for the compost bin.

I've been using a DS5 for PC gaming over an Xbox controller for a few months now, and it's the fucking best! I'm genuinely not going back. The touch pad acts like a track pad for when you absolutely need mouse control (ui navigation mostly), and you can use gyro to fine aim ala the switch. It's sick! I'm considering picking an edge up exclusively for PC gaming, I'm that sold. I just want someone to confirm the back pedals work. I do wish they had hall effect sticks though.

I bought one for that purpose. Realized it's too much, the angles are so large I can't hold it for long periods without hurting my wrists, and it's really heavy, compounding the wrist pain issue. Also the triggers have way too much resistance.

Plus the battery life is really short.

I ended up buying an 8bitdo Ultimate. Much better.

Also the triggers have way too much resistance.

The Edge has 3 "distance" settings for R2 and L2. I moved mine to the shortest setting since I was getting trigger fatigue from Final Fantasy XIV.

Oh that probably helps!
