Every PS5 owner will have the new controller. So they can test those new features with the new controller. But games like Minecraft and overcooked that is known for its local multiplayer most likely wont use those new features. And that is where the using your old controller comes in and allows you to save money. Is it really hard to support practices like this? Why does allowing the consumer to save money on controllers have to be so complicated? Microsoft is also a business. They are wasting potential $$$ so it can benefit the players.
And why do people have to keep mentioning the past. Both companies clearly have changed since then. And this is why competition is good. Its good for MS to keep up with Sony. We cant just let 1 company set all the rules.

I don't know how else to put this to you.
If you are talking about a PS4 game, you can play the same game on the PS5 with the DS4. You only cannon play PS5 games with anything other than the DS controller.
If a company makes a new console, makes a new controller with new features that its older controller lacks. Why should you expect them to support the older controller for the games on the new system?
Again, if there is no difference between the DS4 and the DS controller? Then fine. But there is. Your argument here is, well, those features aren't that big a deal and some games won't even use them. So sony shouldn't bother and just allow everyone to use the DS4.
Why should you e saying that when you haven't even played a single game run on the PS5?
Try and understand this, the more games sony can get to support its own version of haptic feedback and adaptive triggers? The better. If games doing that result in what reviewers come to say makes for a better gaming experience on the PS5 compared o other platforms, that's a win or sony. That's yet another reason they have as o why someone should pick up a game on their console vs on rivals. If they allowDS4 support on the PS5 for PS5 games, the majority of devs would ignore those features and not implement them in their games.
But this whole thing has gotten old. If what you are saying is that sony is being "anti-consumer" then fine. Whatever, they are... take the win. This is one area that for one am very happy they are being anti-consumer for.
And I am not mentioning the at to say hey this person did that before"...
I am mentioning it so you can see why they are or maybe doing something different now. Not everything that looks good actually is good or done for good reasons. Do you really believe that if MS was in sony's position they would be pushing for or doing crossplay? Do you even think they would be releasing their games on PC day and date with the Xbox version? Oon gamepass day one?
