    An amazing controller, no complaints from me. I use it for some games on PC that work better with controller (like Dark Souls and Dragon Quest XI S) and it's perfect for that. Feels great too, and it even matches my mostly-white PC setup.

    It works fine, although there have been some connection issues. Maybe 4 times in 80 hours, it just wouldn't work even when it said it wqs connected. Restarting after waiting a few minutes seemed to work.

    Bought the controller for Starfield on PC. I’m originally a PlayStation gamer so the quality of the controller is a challenge for me to get use to plus the buttons are loud asl, sounds like I’m in my office trying to send a message via morse code lol
