The main reason I don’t do D3 on the console though isn’t the graphics, it’s the god awful Nephalem Glory mechanic and how monsters have 2x HP vs. Won’t have that on consoles until Project Scarlett and PS5. That and with my upcoming rig, NVMe for ultra fast load times. So much smoother framerate and better looking graphics. I’d kill to have D3 and PoE properly playable via controller on my PC. Yes, there’s some tradeoff for accuracy in spell/ability aiming, but that comes with the territory, and as seen in PoE’s console ports, can be done well. The UI could be switched to use the console layout in that mode and spells would use the console methodologies. If game companies truly cared about accessibility, they’d have both a standard and “console” mode. It’s why I used a dual shock 2 controller + mouse setup for WoW and why I play PoE on my PS4 instead of in Windows.
My rig, and my upcoming rig especially, have far more power than any console out there and kb/mouse hurts after only a short time for me. I just dont think it will happen.I wish I could do proper controller on the PC. Would really be awesome to have this game working properly so that my SteamDeck can be loaded up with all of my favorite Blizzard games and it would go well with Diablo 2 Resurrected thats already on there. Ill lay in bed and gather ore and herbs for hours. I already basically play World of Warcraft non stop on the SteamDeck because its just so convenient. I know there are different controller profiles you can use on the SteamDeck for this game, but it just doesnt feel the same and I just cant get used to it. If this game adds controller support, then we will be able to play every game in the series with a controller. I dont work for Blizzard obviously, but it seems like it wouldnt take long at all to copy and paste the controller support code from the other releases. With the rise of devices like the SteamDeck(which is why I want controller support), more and more people will be wanting to play this game with a controller on pc. I came here to post this myself after reading about new content ending for this game.
