Hi everyone,
I’ve been a PlayStation fan since the PS One days. I absolutely love the PS5 and everything it offers — but I’ve recently developed De Quervain’s tenosynovitis, a condition that causes pain in the thumb and wrist.
Sadly, the DualSense controller makes my symptoms worse, while the DualShock 4 remains perfectly comfortable. That difference showed me how much ergonomic design really matters, especially for players with hand or joint issues.
I wanted to share this here in hopes that PlayStation might consider releasing a more ergonomic or lightweight version of the DualSense, or offering accessibility-focused design options for players like me who struggle with the current model.
The new Access Controller is an amazing step forward — but for those of us who prefer a traditional controller layout, a redesigned DualSense would make a huge difference.
Thanks for reading, and for any support or visibility this post might get. I really believe accessibility should include comfort for every kind of player.
