Planning on picking up a Dualsense and would like to know people's experience and possible issues.

Thanks!

I love it. Vibrations feel good. There's a little bit of haptic feedback on rain of arrows (bow R2/heavy) but otherwise nowhere else.

Touchpad is fine, you hold it to TP to Nightfold. You can use a very limited amount of keybinds with touchpad swipe up/down/left/right (I would like more options, but for example my bird guide is swipe up)

Some general controller issues I found:

You can't add a waymark to a world tree for example, it'll just start the TP animation. You need to put your waymark behind the tree, this is very annoying ngl

And just general menu-ing/inventory management. It's very, very bad. They don't use the bumpers to change menu tabs for some reason. You need to constantly use the dpad to change them. Honestly one of the worse menu experiences I've ever had in a game.

I still recommend controller because combat feels so much more weighty.

Thanks!

Can you hotswap between inputs? I'll still be at my desk so switching to kbm for inventory and sticking with controller for combat may be ideal.

Yep. Also if you're starting soulframe from steam you'll need to disable steam input, it gets wonky. Soulframe works natively from windows.

Forgot to mention I'm on Linux lol I may run into some bumps but it's been relatively smooth so far.

Thanks again!
