Very topical vent that is super relevant to today's youth.

I'm getting antsy about BG3 on Saturday and just wanted to install and boot up DA:O on my laptop to mess around, having only ever played it on Xbox.

And lo and behold there is no way to play this with a controller! Different time, I guess.

Vent over.

Can't you use something like Joy2Key to force the button mappings?

Probably, but the game doesn't have a UI mode on PC designed to work with a controller, the radial wheel only exists on console. Very odd that they had a UI and just said fuck it?

No. DA was drastically changed to work with controller on console. BG3's the same, but those changes were implemented in the PC version when you use a controller too.

This bothers me about Dead Rising 2 on Steam as well. Every year or so, I get an itch to play it, and I just can't because it doesn't let me use a controller and the mouse/keyboard controls are a joke.

Morrowin and Oblivion also have no controller support on steam.

I have similar feelings.

Morrowind on controller sounds like a fucking nightmare (yes I know it was on Xbox)

I have only ever played it on Xbox and don't remember it being awkward to control at all.
