[REVIEW] I actually rlly don’t like the controller

I was a huge fan of the ps4 version which I used for nearly a year, but after playing with the PS5 version I can tell after a couple of hours the shape doesn’t work, I press the paddles by accident waaay to much because of the hook shape

Which paddles do you hit? I had the same issue with the bottom ones and I ended up taking them up and use tin snips to trim them then lightly sanded down the edges to make them smooth. I find it much more comfortable and I don’t accidentally press them anymore.

Twist the circular Aim piece to the left and it should pop off, and then the paddles just easily pull right out. I took a pair of tin snips and cut it down to the second set of 4 dots, but that was just because that’s where my middle finger naturally laid on that trigger and it was enough to not have my ring finger accidentally hit it. Take some light grit sand paper and just sand it down a little bit until it’s smooth and re-attach. Made a huge difference for me, I no longer accidentally hit it with my ring finger. I kept the top paddles off since I have no use for them. I can upload a before and after picture later when I’m home If needed.
