No respawn, ever.
It goes like this:
1. You join a match.
2. You're put in a lobby while each player joins. This part usually takes a few minutes. The player count shows on the screen, once there's about 100 players, there's a countdown from 30 seconds. In the meantime more players may join. Up to about 150.
3. You're all spawned in a large cargo plane. Flying toward an island.
4. As the plane flies over the island, you can jump out at any point.
5. Skydive.
6. Parachute and try to land somewhere not populated with other players.
7. Explore and loot buildings.
8. Find guns, ammo, health, armor.
9. Find a vehicle if you can.
10. Blue force-field slowly starts to surround the island and decreases in size every few minutes.
11. Encounter other players.
12. Kill them.
13. Try not to die.
14. Die.
15. Last person standing gets the Chicken Dinner.
16. Join a new match.
Also, at random times there are 'red zones'. These vary in size and you get a short warning before bombs explode everywhere. You can take shelter in a building and may survive. If you're outside at the time, you'll probably die.
The whole thing can often take 20 minutes or more. You may die in the first few minutes, or may make it to the top 10 and then die in a heroically stupid fashion.

I tried the battle royale mode of Fortnite which was free on PS4 which is basically the same thing and it was kind of fun. But also terrifying and nerve wracking because you don't want to screw up.

Yeah it's ridiculous. I'd like to find a generic one, also

I've seen the official controller on sale for $60 a few times in the past month. I get not wanting to pay that much but it is a phenomenal controller. Right up there with the best ever.
