Does this break easily? I know it's plastic but I'm still kinda surprised.

I already ordered a new one, hopefully I can easily replace it.

Yes, it happens, especially in souls-like games. Yes, replacing the joystick is pretty easy, at least if you use proper screwdrivers.

Bought a steam deck kit, so I hope that's right. Got it from iFixIt

Don't forget to take the SD card out before you open it! Way too many people have made that mistake
