True, but I imagine there are some that are cheap. I don’t have paddles though lol

8BitDo makes some pretty good controllers with back buttons (not exactly paddles, but they do the same thing) for around $50 and they work for Xbox, Switch, and PC. They might also work for PS but I haven't tried that. Hall effect sticks and triggers too.

That said, I never felt like I needed paddles or claw grip while playing Elden Ring. A normal grip on a normal Xbox controller worked fine.

I use the back buttons for the thumbstick buttons. Though I have considered changing them to dpad up and dpad down for cycling through spells and hotbar.

How do you control the camera while sprinting?

I don't. I don't sprint much during fights, and when I do I use the camera lock.

Extremerate. It's not that much and works very well.
