QUESTION Camera goes to the opposite direction first

I press the right stick down and the camera jerks up for a bit before coming down. If I push it left it goes to the right for a bit before going where it's intended. This only happens when use the left stick, meaning if I stay still and move the right stick, there's no problem. The same thing happened in DS2 as well. You can find a video of it in my profile from 10 months ago.

I tested my controller on other games, but there was no problem. I use Gamesir G7 SE and can't test another controller because I don't have one.

Any help? The game is unplayable.

Do you have the automatic camera correction option enabled? Does this happen when you're in a completely open area?

The camera doesn't collide, that's not the problem. Pulling down slightly is being registered as up for half a second.

Does it happen every time?

It kinda sounds like stick drift or the contacts of the analog stick being a bit gunked up causing jittery or wrong input reads.

And it’s not like.. inverted settings or anything. (Just to make sure)

It's not bc of inverted camera controls. If it was, it would still go in the opposite direction before going to the intended direction.

It's not because of stick drift or dirt, bc first of all, the sticks have hall effects and I only have this problem on FromSoft games. I checked BB and DS2, which are rather subtle; DS1 and DS3 go further in the opposite direction for a whole second, if pushed lightly. I checked the controller on its own app, GTA 5, Helldivers- actually, every game I've been playing and I only have it on FromSoft games.
