I had a lot of problems with the original FFXIV controller you could get back when 1.0 was in its prime(if you can call it that). And in this game 2.0 there was something weird going on with the dead zones of the movement. If I let up pressure going forward it almost always continued to move forward, usually walking. But if i pressed the stick back and released sometimes it would stop. I ended up giving up and buying a xbox360 controller. That resolved my problems. I think FFXIV is very picky about the dead zones on the control sticks. I heard of one guy on here around beta where his did the same thing but with his camera stick. So the camera was always look up his butt and he kept having to fight the camera. SE might be able to introduce some better dead zone options, if the demand is there. Otherwise you're looking at getting a new controller. OF course you wanna make sure you tried recalibrating it(if your playing on windows) under control panel, before buying a diff one. In there when your calibrating you can see if there is some odd stuff going on with the sticks. Sometimes windows can help creating a better dead zone unless its really bad.
