Hi everyone,
I'm using a game controller (PS5 DualSense) to play a game on my PC for the first time. The controller has two "directional buttons" – I think that's what they're called. For RPGs, the left directional buttons act like the "WASD" keys on a keyboard, and the right ones are similar to the mouse.
My question is, how can I change the sensitivity of the right directional button? I know you can adjust settings for sensitivity, speed, or DPI on the mouse, but I'm having trouble finding the same options online. Maybe I'm using the wrong terms when searching and missing the right information.
I'm trying to make the right directional button more sensitive so that a small movement on the controller results in a bigger movement on the screen – like reducing the physical mouse movement while increasing cursor speed.
Thanks a lot!

Most games with a gamepad let you tweak the sensitivity for the left stick, and these adjustments are usually found within the game settings.
