Ive wanted to get into PC gaming for awhile but I just don't have the room or the care to set something up its why I use consoles. Every time I mention this ill get a billion messages about ways to make it work. I'm a simple person I want to plug it in and turn it on which is why I use consoles. I dont play enough games to justify a full set up. I plan to plug my PS5 controller into this (I think its able?) And enjoy.

    It's able ! However my experience on Linux tells me to warn you that having the PS4 controller work only requires plug and play, having the PS5 controller work requires a few (moderate) tweaks

    Whats a full setup in this context? A mouse and keyboard? You could always hook a pc up to a tv so thats not a factor.. dont get me wrong if this is what it takes to get you to embrace pc gaming thats great, it just feels like before now if there were any barriers to it they largely existed only in your head. Hooking a pc up to a tv and using a $20 air remote from amazon and a ps4 controller(or even just the touchpad on the ps4 controller) to control the mouse was always possible.
