What is your favorite controller?

Having head to replace my DS4 because of a couple buttons getting mushy, I decided to get a DS5 and I really like it. It's ugly as shit, but I like the extra weight over the previous and fits my bigger hands better. Now if only more devs could be fucked to natively support it so I don't have to keep using DS4Windows.
How does the Dualsense stack up to the DS3? I prefer the DS3 to the DS4 and the only things I like about the DS4 over the DS3 are the sticks and size. I'm like you and have larger hands so the DS3 can be annoying at times. Really should get into controller modding.

Unless you're really attached the DS3, I'd say it's a straight upgrade. The adaptive triggers are a nice gimmick when done well like it Ratchet and Clank or Metro, but at least in Cyberpunk can be disabled. The vibration has a lot more range. And it doesn't have those stupid convex triggers; how that made it past concept I have no clue. The controller light is also just bordering the TouchPad and a bit recessed, so there's not going to be and glare on the screen like with the DS4.

The battery sucks, but it's not a bother if you're going to plug it in anyway.

Back in the day I actually liked the huge original controllers the first X-Box came with. Everyone else hated them, but they really just fit my hands great. The little ones they replaced them with gave me hand cramps.

Nowadays my only controller is a T4 Kaleid thing, that has zero stick drift because the thumbsticks have magnetic Hall Effect bearings, or something. So far it's lasted longer than any of my previous controllers, but then I don't play games all that much either. For $50 it isn't bad though.
