For general use I have a wired Mad Catz 360 pro controller with textured grips. Modest dead zone, no drift despite a decade of use, and comfy as hell. It’s an absolute workhorse and still works as well as it did when I bought it.
If I’m playing something that doesn’t require analog input I have an 8bitdo M30. If I’m not using it through Steam it can be a pain to map since it has a 6-button layout instead of the usual ABXY, but I vastly prefer the 6-button layout so it’s worth a little headache to me.
