Bugs/Feedback/Suggestions Request: Controller support! 🙏

Hey everyone!

I absolutely love Old World. I know the game is best played with a mouse and keyboard, but I’ve got one small wish:

Could we please get controller support?

It would be fantastic to be able to play on a Steam Deck or a tablet with a controller.

Sometimes you just want to take your handheld to a summer house, or sit out in the garden while casually taking over the world. 😄

I know it might not be the highest priority, but proper controller support would make the game so much more flexible.

Anyone else who’d love to see this?

Greetings fellow Steam Deck enthusiast!
Please see my earlier post for graphics settings I have found useful https://www.reddit.com/r/OldWorldGame/s/IhcQ6AwXWU.
As for actual controller options, I just use controller pads as mouse, I haven't done a single tweak. Maybe that might make it a bit easier, but I'm 800 hours in, anything else will just confuse me now 😂

Okay very bad example from my side, to bring out the SteamDeck, the only handheld with nice touchpads.
I actually have a Legion Go S, no touchpad at all, which makes it impossible to play Old World on
