Steam Controller

Is there any way to make the bumpers easier to click?
Valve probably thought bumpers are only used minimally for certain actions.

Trying to play For Honor with this is a nightmare, my right wrist started to hurt due to the fact that I'm repeatedly clicking the right bumper (which is already too hard to press) and also the fact that the trigger is WAAAY more softer and easier to click compared to the bumper which is killing my wrist

Anyway, any ideas anyone? Hope they fix this is in the Steam Controller V2

Fist adjust how you hold the controller. If it's killing your wrist it's not the bumpers fault, you're holding the controller in an uncomfortable position, the bumpers don't require 4 Ton force to press, they're not at fault here.

they certainly don't require 4 tons but they're honestly pretty hard to press compared to xb1/ps4 controllers, and my hands don't hurt not until i've played for quite a bit

I know they don't require 4 tons, but they're not *that* hard to press, even compared to Xbox and DualShock gamepads.

Still, adjusting your grip will help you a lot in this situation.
Since SC has protrusions instead of slanted grips like Xbox and DS gamepads have, you can't hold it the same way you do those two. And when you find a sweet spot, the bumpers are easier to press.

And if you still find them really hard to press after adjusting your grip then nobody can help you because they're like that, you can try to change them, but you'll just most likely have to learn to live with it or get some excercise tool for your fingers so you build up some muscle in them. Idk what else to tell you.
