Step 1: plug in controller

Step 2: launch game

Step 3: change game input setting to “controller”

Did we need a fucking video for this? Honestly?

I'm pretty sure I skipped step 3.

Has anyone tried the steam controller, steam link to tv combo?

It has been a while that I used this at all but this could be a good game for it.

Even if it's a bit slower here and there due to steam link this could be a game where it does not hurt.

I’ve got about ten hours in on a controller (DualSense) on Steam. One thing: you’ll always get Xbox controller icons if Steam Input is enabled. If you disable that in game properties, you’ll get PlayStation icons for PlayStation controllers.

I had to do this too for the correct icons to show up for the PS in the game.

I have an Xbox controller and I own a PS5 with a few controllers. I've tried both and like both. I do like the touch pad curser to help click and start the game from the lauch pad. (I hate lauch pads. They don't work well with Big Picture Mode and 4K TVs.)

I'll save you 20 minutes. Launch it from Steam's Big Picture mode.
