Hello everyone,

recently I switched from console to PC and noticed various points where controller optimization either doesn't work or is only partially implemented. I am aware that the majority plays with mouse and keyboard, but it would make sense to take a look at these points to improve the quality for controller players. Here are a few points that are affected:

  1. In the Central Market, navigation with the controller is not possible, and the mouse must be used for this purpose. At the same time, the number pad on the keyboard cannot be used, and the desired quantity must be entered via the controller on the keyboard in the Central Market menu.

  2. The same problem exists when moving one or more items via a Central Market maid. Here, navigation and selection must be done again with the mouse.

  3. In the Pearl Shop, navigation with the controller is not possible at all, and items cannot be selected and purchased.

  4. Buffs, such as Loot Scroll or Agris, cannot be activated via the controller. A menu must be opened to make the mouse cursor visible, and then the respective symbol on the screen is clicked.

  5. An additional menu, similar to the console version in the character information, to activate various buffs is completely missing.

The combat system works wonderfully. Thanks for that. 

Best regards.

I'm kind of the opposite. I want them to remove (or option to remove) controller support in character customization. Its much more difficult to do on controller and missing many features of mouse and keyboard. Kind of annoying that everytime I need to edit a character, I have to disable gamepad UI and then re-enable it when I'm done.

I know what you mean. But being able to deactivate the controller and customize it through the classic menu is a good option. And how often does one really customize their character? Once or twice, and then you're done."

I also switched from playing the game on console to PC several years ago but I still miss being able to properly play the game with a controller at times. Console you could re-map buttons as well. It'd be nice to see full gamepad support. I make do without turning gamepad ui on and using the button maping you can do ingame but having to grab my mouse and keyboard if I go to central market or something like that is kind of annoying.
