I can't stand when buttons are mapped to physically clicking the analogue sticks down. Trying to press the button always messed up the direction I'm trying to hold on the stick. It's terrible design, akin to putting the safety switch of a pistol inside the trigger so that you have to squeeze the trigger part-way to engage the safety.
Input elements should be single purpose and simple, accurate, reliable, and tactile. Clickable analogue sticks (along with a clickable mouse wheel on a mouse) are none of these.
- devilbunny 2y agoI'm fine with clickable mouse wheels, but clickable analog sticks can go to hell. I get it, I'm not everyone: I'm the adult American male for whom the "Duke" Xbox controller was designed. Which means that almost every game controller I've held since the age of 14 was too small. Not clicking an analog stick is harder than not making it move when intentionally clicking it, for me.
