Absolutely loving what I've played (about 25 hours) so far of the EA, it's great!!

One thing I'm absolutely frothing at the mouth for is controller support though, been watching Stadia get the controller love and am kind of jealous that us PC gamers are not included in the controller beta scheme yet.

I get pretty bad arthritis in my wrists so KB+M isn't always optimal for me, and Larian's controller UI and execution was perfect for DOS and DOS2 so can't wait for it to be honest. The close third person view is perfect for it too, I think it would actually work better in terms of movement as the camera swing using middle mouse (or as I've mapped it now to Q and E to pan L and R) is a bit of a chore vs using a right stick (the cam is so close to the action I'd say it'll feel amazing on controller).

I know it's 100% confirmed for 1.0, so in before "just wait for full release", and I know consoles use controllers, but so do a HUGE and growing number of PC gamers too now, so in before "just play it on console if you like controllers" haha.

Hoping the success of the Stadia controller beta means it may get applied before too long on EA for PC too: lesssgo Larian! laugh

I agree with this 100%. I can play a game with a controller without any issue. Using a mouse and keyboard for too long though causes a lot of pain in my hands. Looking forward to when the controller support rolls out.
