Which controller do you prefer for Hollow Knight? Xbox One or Steam Controller...

I am looking to buy a new controller for this game.
But I am not sure which one feels better to master the game.

Between those two options, I'd have to say Xbox.
The layout of the Steam controller is rather unusual, and its directionals are not that precise.

Though I believe that since the game has support for the PS4 controller, I would say that's probably better.
I just use an Xbox 360 controller because, A) 360 controller is just cheaper, B) It has a built in USB cable so I don't need to waste batteries, and C) The Xbox One controller I have is just a bit too small for my big hands(F*** you genetics!).

I know this isn't what you asked, but I'll just offer that playing it on keyboard is quite doable.
I suspect using a controler is far superior, especially for when the combat gets more complex during the lategame, but it is very playable with a keyboard.

Isn't that the Xbox one controller can connect directly to PC with a cable. Then you don't have to worry about batteries. And the good things about Xbox One controller is that you can turn it to wireless if you want.

Thx for the advice, but I am looking to play Hollow knight on TV via Steam link. Thats why I really want a controller.

Yes, I am aware that the Xbox One controller has a detatchable micro usb charge cable can be used to play on pc.
But what I meant was that I have a 360 controller with a built-in usb cable.
Also, the main reason for choosing to use my 360 controller over my One controller, is that the 360 controller is more convenient for my hand size.

The PS4 controller is much better, but I don't want to go out and buy a PS4 controller just for this.
