Controllers for SC2 PS2 to reduce hand pain?

Dirty casual here

I’ve started playing Soul Calibur 2 on PS2 with my brother and we’ve really been getting into it, but I have an issue.

I use a DualSense on my PS2 and it’s a great controller, but I’m having an issue with some significant hand pain and cramping while using a gamepad. I was never into fighting games before I picked up SC2 so I’m not used to these inputs and they make my hands hurt every time I play, which is a real bummer.
I have to use my hands for some pretty precise and strenuous tasks at work (people in my field often develop carpal tunnel later in their careers) and playing this game with a pad isn’t helping.

Any advice on a controller that might be more comfortable for playing this game? I’ve considered trying a fight stick but I’ve never used one and I don’t know what’s available for the PS2.

I think I downloaded the wrong Infinity Nikki.

Game used for the joke: SOULCALIBUR VI

Notes:

Soulcalibur 6 (& 3, 4, BD, and 5) allows you to create OCs as well as dress up the characters in the game. The series, like Dead or Alive, has fanservice; yes, jiggle physics, skimpy outfits, and so on, but men can get it too. Huge hunks, handsome men, pretty boys, and even lizardmen can show more skin during battle or your customization. SC6 also allow you to create OCs based on race such as catgirls, lizardmen, skeletons, angels, or even demons. And the game takes place during the late 16th century Eurasia.

Hope you liked how I tried to make Nikki and bear in mind, I created this video back in Infinity Nikki ver. 1.7 give or take.

My Natsu Cosplay (WIP)

Hi everyone! I've been a soul calibur fan since I was 5 years old playing Soul Calibur 3 on ps2! I know Natsu is not the most liked character (neither is Soul Calibur 5 the most enjoyed game) but I found her armor and hairstyle interesting and felt like it'd be a task to learn. Before this build, I had very limited experience in building armor and making wigs! I'm currently still missing her leather calf wraps and the weapons. Though I have made the weapons, I don't have a way to attach them to the suit yet! (Was gonna try out magnets.)

The build so far has taken at least 30+ hours of work. ​(the most tedious thing was cutting out each individual leaf/plating for the hip pauldrons, painting them and carving their design.) But it was super fun and the ponytail strands are able to be rearranged! ​​​They were made with wig hair, tape, uhu glue, and wire!

Also the background is blender, lol! Not a real background.

Hello there, I'm currently working on PCSX2x6, a parallel fork of PCSX2 oriented towards NAMCO SYSTEM246 arcade emulation.

This platform includes SoulCalibur2, and its exclusive "Conquest mode".

Which will be playable on the first public Alfa that will eventually be released. Stay tuned!

SCIII Tales of Souls Voldo vs Nightmare? (Not Night Terror)

Hi there!

In Soul Calibur III's Tales of Souls mode, I cannot seem to find the right path to fight Nightmare as Voldo - does anyone have a simple explanation on what choices I need to choose or modifiers I could have missed? (I've tried following the excellent guide Ruyeyama on GameFAQs, but this is the one event I cannot seem to trigger - I always get Sigfried!).

I've gotten every other event somehow, but not this one, which is super weird! Thanks in advance for any help!

(SC2) Alternate voice for starting screen. Sounded like Yoshimitsu?

The announcer voice that says "SOUL CALIBUR 2!"

Changed to Yoshimitsu's voice. I've religiously used SC's Yoshimitsu for 20 years, and NEVER heard that.

What causes that to happen?
