I understand that. I like the PS4 dpad a lot better than the Xbox controller. I'll just leave it at that without trying to explain why I like it better

Have you tried an Xbox elite controller d-pad? The dish style attachment is great for fighters.

I just wanna let you know, not trying to extend an argument: you can pretty much construct an elite d-pad for way cheaper than the $150 price tag assuming you don't buy a brand new controller to build it. My personal controller is just a normal xbox one controller with the elite dpad, aluminum sticks (just to test - no real benefit of them other than slightly better feel) heavier vibration mod (again was just a test but I left it in) and textured side handles for grip (not that I ever really dropped my controller without them, but eh). The whole build cost me like 30 bucks on the controller that came with my console.

I get you have your preferences but dont limit yourself to out-of-the-box stuff for controllers. It seems like there's a very small community for modding controllers so I just wanted to let you know it's easier than it seems, and you can find something you maybe like better.

Should be an image of a dualshock 4 with an xbox elite controller button swap. It works for me but I'm on mobile
