Random Controller input lag on PC

[RawrySenpai]

So lately I've been having issues with my ps4 controller randomly getting input lag when I'm playing FFXIV. Sometimes the lag is pretty short (fraction of a second) but sometimes it gets really bad (2+ second) delay. I've noticed that it only happens with ffxiv since when I log into another game it works just fine.

The only thing that seems to fix it usually is restarting my computer but that tends to be a really big inconvenience.

I've tried using an xbox controller, disabled root enumerator, reinstalled controller drivers, used other usb plug in points (both 2.0 and 3.0)

At this point I don't know what else I can do, has anyone else had this issue and had luck fixing it without a full system restart?

Good afternoon and thank you for posting on the Final Fantasy XIV Technical Support Forums.

Have any changes happened to the device before the issue began? We would also like to recommend several other troubleshooting steps:

- Disable all other device drivers, leaving the mouse, keyboard, and controller as the only active devices.
- If you are using a specialized gaming keyboard, try using a different keyboard to ensure there are no conflicts between the devices.
- Try unplugging all other devices and only plugging in the mouse, keyboard, and controller.
- Make sure Windows has been fully updated from the Microsoft/Windows Update website.
