I would imagine that Sony would not get in the way of the controller being used on PC. The DS4 was either the second or third most used PC controller the past 5 or so years. Controllers have huge margins and they definitely sold controllers solely for PC use.

They even put out an official PC wireless adapter for a time.

Yeah, I use it with Terraria. Not sure if its because the game now have controller support, but it works great.

I tested a few user profiles until I settled on one that I tweaked a lil.

Cool. I'll wait for impressions first but I think I'm gonna get one later and use it as the main controller.

How is the compatibility with the dualshock4 on PC anyway? Does it mostly work with steams controller config?
Yup! works great most of the time.
Really the only issue most of the time is that games don't use PS prompts which can trip me out sometimes when playing intense games. But you can usually download mods from workshop or Nexus to change that.

Yeah, I had this issue with Terraria and Minecraft, yeah I know that's not Steam, lol.

Terraria has the PS prompts, but the Xbox profiles were more compatible. That's when I went outside the game presets and used Steam profiles. That thing is powerful and amazing.

Some real thirsty people in here for a controller you can't use for 11 days.
I bet some of the crazier playstation fans on Era would find some uses, like cuddling with it while falling asleep for a month until the console release. An onlyfans entrepeneur could make some bank by making the first sexual video with a dual sense.

I really dig the packaging
Hmmm… I was actually thinking the opposite.

It reminds me of Best Buy Insignia stuff… which isn't exactly screaming quality to me.

Would be nice if Sony gives us a proper PC driver this time.. but probably won't. Hopefully, Valve will get support going quickly.

I'd like to imagine it can't be too much more work beyond what's been done for the DS4 already. They may have already partially prepared for the adaptive triggers too with soft press activators on triggers for DS4.

I use my DS4 all the time on PC, works just fine. I use the DS4Windows program for games it doesn't really click right with. Sometimes the program messes with Steam or other games, but really just toggle it off and it's good to go.
