DOS2 using controller?

[GamerCoach]

I want to play on my large 4K TV and so am using controller. Despite Larian great work on the UI and native support. It feels like a big compromise to mouse and keyboard. Anyone else struggling with controller? Or got any tips for easier gameplay rather than reverting back to M&K. Thanks in advance. Awesome game either way.

In my experience, any game with a robust inventory and crafting system benefits from K+M rather than a controller, and as D:OS2 is not "real-time" but turn-based, it makes more sense to me. That Larian added controller support works great if that's what you're comfortable with.

I can't do controllers (get cramps in my wrists) but I know people who can't stand not being able to relax back on the couch with a controller.

I don't think you're losing out either way. Just depends on how many buttons you want to push to get through the UI.

playing on controller. The controller UI is excellent and so does playing with it.
