> No more fears of developing carpal tunnel for me.
Unfortunately, I developed major RSI in my right hand from playing Horizon Forbidden West, to the point that I had to stop playing console games for several months. And I don’t typically have that problem on any other console, including previous PS consoles.
There’s something about the shape of the controller in combination with the controls for that game, which requires frequent usage of both R triggers, sometimes in combination with other buttons. Also could be related to the force feedback of the triggers that’s new on PS5 (though it doesn’t seem frequent/strong enough to matter).
I never had this same problem with Horizon Zero Dawn on the PS4, even though the controls are mostly the same.
I’m not sure I’ll be able to finish Forbidden West.
