      I thought a lot of the customizations are actually just steam configurations, you can’t remap the buttons on device as you can a PS5 pro controller.

      I will say I’ll pay for joy sticks that don’t die — if you amortize the cost of the Steam controller against my 3 dead Joy cons and 2 dead PS5 controllers it probably works out better. Sony’s offering of “buy a controller that costs 5x the base controller then we will sell you a supply of joysticks that will inevitably die for $20 each” is insulting at best. But I do like the PS5 Pro controller’s joystick customizations, customizable back buttons, and remapping the physical controller (though I hate that you can only manage the remapping on your playstation).
