I played with a standard PS3 controller until I got a PS4. Then it was a standard PS4 controller up into current day, because it works on PC that I moved to in late SHB.

I didn't get used to holding a PS5 controller until my second playthrough of Elden Ring.

As far as Xbox controllers go, I miss The Duke. Everything after that feels more or less the same Xbox wise.

I sometimes miss the simplicity of the NES/SNES controllers from back in the day though. Before controllers took on these unnecessary angles and grip structures that really just cause them to fall off of your desk and such.
