I like the controller layout. It fits in my hands quite nicely. The BrawlerGen USB is very comfortable. The analog stick and buttons all feel really nice and the controller itself feels sturdy. That said, there are a few areas this controller could use improvement.
My biggest gripe is that the directional pad has no central pivot point. It is possible to push it in completely. I think adding a pivot in the center would improve the feeling and accuracy of the d-pad a lot.
The L and R buttons would be more comfortable of they were bigger and further back. My index fingers naturally rest just behind them so I consider the L and R buttons to be slightly out of the way. That said, I don’t experience discomfort by using them so it’s a small gripe.
I’d prefer if Direct Input mode wouldnt map the analog stick and d-pad to the same axis. This mapping hinders the controller’s versatility for certain PC games. Xinput mode works pretty well though.
Overall I think it’s a solid controller with a few flaws that keep it from being great. I’m happy with my purchase.
