[Suggestion] Add controller support

It would be really nice to play this game chilled on the couch -
but to do this controller support would be needed.

I think its not hard to do this - and i would suggest ONLY keyboard controls too -
If anyone can make some kind of mod for this i would highly appreciate this:)

Cheers,
Mylo

Re: [Suggestion] Add controller support

As much i love games with controller support, you'll realize soon that to be just a little efficient in this game you'll need a note pad and castle draft opened at the same time ( with your keyboard to note the names correctly and copy paste the design you are scouting ).

It would be possible if the game was marking the house's name you are visiting and allow you some sort of "fog of war" mechanic, the game would remember what you did scout previously and show it to you in gray colors for example... In a way it wouldn't be that silly at all but it won't happen ( i understand the concept of Jason here, he want us to take note and all, but in the end it's kind of tedious and require no skill ).

Edit : Also steam controller  should be available for sale this summer. Well it won't change anything for this game but it should be what's you're looking for ( i know i do ).

Thank you! Yeah, i did some research and it works pretty well at the moment.

Well, not everyone needs a notepad - especially the inexperienced players like me.
>>Playing a game just by buttons is more comfortable though.
I also think a lot of things would be solved if you could just mark houses - or sort them in lists, but that's another topic..
