DualSense Features
- Adaptive triggers for bow pulling and horseback galloping
- Haptic feedback for different terrain (sand, snow, stone)
- Speaker audio for quest notifications and item pickups

I played the demo at a convention. The adaptive triggers feel great. Drawing a bow actually gives resistance. The haptics for walking on sand are surprisingly detailed.
