You're telling me I can now comfortably play Satisfactory from my couch? This is going to have a profoundly negative effect on my health

Physical health or mental health?

Nuuu! You must manifold everything or you're not playing right! /s

I don't see the point. How are you going to alt-tab back and forth between the game and Excel with a controller? Pfffft.

Edit: Do controllers even HAVE an autosum shortcut?

Only peasants use 1 device. Spreadsheet be on a separate monitor

PC for the Game, Laptop for Satisfactory Modeller, tablet for wiki, and a paper notepad and pen for writing down numbers.

like basically everything Coffee Stain puts out, it's really well done, controller integration has been flawless so far, great game and a great team!

I was worried about this. The game has so many hotkeys, I have no idea how a controller would handle them. Lots of contextual button mappings.

After I played FFXIV on controller, I no longer have this worry in general. (It has 64 or so hotbar spots) Toggled by holding down with L1/L2 or both, or in reverse and some other fun stuff.

It works flawlessly

[–] [email protected] 4 points 3 days ago (1 children)

Honestly even in Kingdom Hearts 1, there was an L1 menu for spells behind the other menus.

As a FFXIV controller player as well, it's really not that bad.

As someone who played World of Warcraft for many years using only mouse and keyboard, before moving on to FFXIV...I have never played FFXIV on mouse and keyboard and don't even know how I could at this point >!except for the few times I do the Air Force One GATE at the Gold Saucer because the aim speed on a controller is just way too slow!<

It's not a spaceship, it's a videogame.

I'm still waiting for the stable release. Mostly because I'm not prepared to lose another 200-300 hours.

[–] [email protected] 7 points 3 days ago (1 children)

Stable? 1.0 already dropped

[–] [email protected] 16 points 3 days ago

Controller support is in the experimental 1.1 branch

I never offered any excuses for my bad lines.
