Need better controller support on PC?

I hope you can improve PC controller support (not sure about console). Here are some suggestions:

1. You can use a mouse, keyboard, and controller simultaneously without having to relog. The HUB UI automatically changes based on which device you are using.

2. You can rotate the character in inventory and shop to see their appearance by using the right joystick.

3. You need a shortcut to quickly compare equipment when in inventory (or it exists, but I don't know).

4. You should synchronize all the controller button instructions to the bottom of the screen for simple viewing; some button instructions appear very small, making them difficult to follow.

5. The controller doesn't need to relog when turned on after being off; you can use the mouse or keyboard to continue the game.

6. I play Rogue, and it has a bothersome issue: Lightning Rod doesn't display the Area of Effect (AOE) around its target, making it difficult to identify the precise target; Freezing Salvo fires backwards when I use it while moving backwards (without using the right joystick for aiming), and it shoots inaccurately when I use the right joystick for aiming. Other similar skills also have this issue. Occasionally, I want to shoot Lightning Rod at myself, but I'm unsure of how to accomplish this.

Now that the PC controller has advanced significantly, my wife and I are enjoying Apex 4, and I anticipate that many other PC players will follow suit, as the experience of using it and playing POE2 is truly remarkable. I trust that you will address this issue more effectively.

Honestly, I appreciate the way you guys work; there are fewer bugs compared to another game that has been out for over a year, and the character can walk and attack at the same time, which is exactly what I wanted.

2. I believe it already works. Hold right trigger and then use sticks.

3. Press Right stick to compare and read about item stats



About 1 -- totally agree, I want to be able to sort inventory/stash/check vendors using touchpad on steamdeck, but currently it shows mouse cursor, but do not allow to interact properly.
But I believe there could be some problems with couch coop.
I believe GGG has the potential to develop laser sights similar to those in top-down shooting games like Helldiver 1. And GGG could also create its own cosmetics to sell, like Icon cursors.
May be. If it will be optional i think it would be cool
