Logitech went coocoo a while ago... But since they've put motherfucking ads in their driver (I have never ever thought i would say such a bizarre thing) I've thrown away my lg-stuff and replaced it. After like 20yrs of brand-loyalty. Ads...in....a....driver...which already sucked ass since the switch to lg-hub. Ugh.
What does Logitech make that requires such a driver?
Tbf, they make things like sim racing equipment etc
That does not require a proprietary driver. Controller interfaces have been standardized for the last decade.
For controller sure, but bear in mind if you’re looking at something like a wheel with force feedback, and pedals with pressure sensitive response, that changes more than just button presses
Edit: to be clear I’m not defending the shit in this article in question. Just that some of the stuff they do may actually need a driver. But not everything…
