Hate them. The first time Rebirth used them I had to turn them off because it actually hurt my fingers
I've used it a bit when playing shooters, but have it turned off most of the time.

It's kinda neat but doesn't really change the experience in any real way for me. It also seems like something that will shorten the lifespan of the controller if I use it often.
Save for your doomed future
I remember playing Battlefield without realizing it was a feature, and the trigger had so much tension, I thought it was broken. It eventually fired and startled me.

needless to say I liked it and it prompted me to try that astro playroom immediately after
They feel like they get in the way of pressing the trigger. In an FPS, this can be the different between you shooting and you getting shot instead.

Video Game IGN: Mystic. Ask me for a joke, I come up with some good ones.
yep i love them for ratchet and clank rift apart on PS5

the pc version has a gimped version of it. partly why i refunded the pc version LOL ontop of it not running well on my system (tho it did look crispier than ps5 version)

Yeah, they're neat.
...I think I'm done here...
Hate it honestly. Cool concept but absolutely hate it.
I love them. The feedback is really cool. Feeling the "trigger" move when firing a gun. The added resistance when drawing a bow. Feeling the pedal slip when slamming on the brakes. I think all of that is really cool and adds to the games.

Rheumatoid Arthritis. The crawling scene put the triggers to a ridiculously high actuation force
Great concept but awful in practice as in order to optimally feel the effects you have to use the exact amount of pressure the developers assign to certain switches. Becomes completely pointless if you frequently push triggers down all the way.
Thanks for reading!

you can turn them down/off.

Before I even started the game, i turned them off.

Never used them. I never cared for triggers at all. I preferred PS1/2 style shoulder buttons that were just normal buttons. The PS2's were pressure sensitive but they still sat flush with the controller surface and hardly anything used the feature anyway.

My current PC controller has flush shoulders too. I'm actually quite the fan of the controller. It's a ZD-V, with the stupid dumb Xbox button names but the symmetrical PS-style layout. I was adamant about both of these features because, well, let's face it AAAs are too damn lazy to spend like five hours identifying your controller and making the onscreen button prompts match (with the exception of a handful that will do the PS layout but not the SNES).

Anyway, I'm not opposed to the idea. In fact, it sounds really cool and I'd love to try it out. But the PS5 doesn't have a single game of interest to me that I can't get on PC, so I haven't bought one.

They're alright when they serve an immersive purpose in a video game ie. Astro's Playroom, Gran Turismo.

Love them. Im all-in to features. More gyro, more haptics, more touchpad usage, more VR, more games that are actually built around 3D audio and so on. Give me cool toys instead of shinier light.
I forget they even exist most of the time.

I really quite the fan of this guy.

I enjoy it. In Spider-Man there's that little bit of resistance for web slinging and it's nice.
his comparison suggests we're closet african americans.

Come to think of it, why haven't we developed an extended Xinput standard that provides its own queryable button names and default images for each?
