On both Xbox and PlayStation you can. For PlayStation specifically, details

It's interesting how everyone responds to Controllers differently, or perhaps it's more accurate to say how Controllers respond differently to everyone. I really like the Hybrid D-Pad on the Xbox (Series) Controller. Surprisingly, the Faceted D-Pad on the Xbox Elite Series 2 is fantastic and hands down the best D-Pad I've ever used for fighting games thus far.
The problem for me is the subtle form factor changes of the Xbox (Series) Controller over the Xbox (One) Controller have either given me or aggravated what I suspect to be tendonitis. After using the Controller for about 20 to 40 minutes, I have what feels like inflammation in my right forearm, and sometimes what feels like bruising on my right palm just below the right index finger. It's pretty uncomfortable.
The Xbox (One) Controller doesn't do this, so I bought an Elite Series 2 as it's the same form factor. I absolutely love this Controller, but sadly, I'm finding that after about 1 - 1.5 hours of play, my right wrist starts hurting. I'm guessing the extra weight of this Controller?
I expect I'll need to return it, and stick with the Xbox (One) Controller. Unto itself that's fine, save that they're discontinued and when the ones I have finally conk out, I'm not sure what options will be available to me. Either 3rd party I guess or I'll need to suck up some pain and try to change how I play.
Ah. As I recall,
Horizon Forbidden West is on PlayStation 4, and
God of War: Ragnarok is, according to the developer, a PlayStation 4 game that was enhanced for PlayStation 4 Pro and PlayStation 5. So basically, they're both cross gen games as so many games have been through the 9th gen.
Having said that, if shooters aren't your thing, PlayStation may indeed be the better fit regardless of their flaws. I find both consoles have loosely reclaimed their identities from the 7th gen: So Xbox is the console platform of choice for shooters, western RPGs, western fighting games, and startegy games. PlayStation is the choice for action/adventure, Japanese RPGs, and general fighting games.
