controller support on PC for PoE2

tldr: in case its not already a thing (doubt it tbh), we NEED simultanious (not switching) input from controller and keyboard - its a game changer when it comes to clunkyness.

---

as my keyboard-hand is messed up from all the piano over the years, i decited to check out the gross (to me) world of controller gameplay...

i got my self a "elite series 2" and tested it in a veriaty of arpgs (D2R, D4, PoE etc.)

to the point.

to me its all about the additional buttons on the back of the controller, these are to my surprise not actually additional buttons but just copies of already existing ones... so i remapped those to QWER on my keyboard.

and it works (not in PoE1 tho - but thats a different story), in D4 i can bind aktions ingame to QWER and by pressing the backpaddels it performs the skill/action.

but here comes the problem and the reason why i make this post...

the controller input and keyboard input are alternating (locking each other out), which means if i use the controller to move, i cant use a skill that is mapped to a key on my keyboard (while moving).
i will have to let go of the stick on the controller and then push the backpaddel to perform the action -> this is BAD!

it either defeats the whole purpose of an MMO-controller (having to take your finger off the move-stick to gain access to the additional buttons) or basicly creates the same issue GGG admitted with weapon swapping in PoE1 but for controller... its just one additional button to press to switch your weapon or in this case your skill-set, but it feels SO CLUNKY that basicly 90%(99?) of players would refuse to use it if they could (but they cant, because its controller and they just dont have more buttons - rip).

so pls GGG, let us have SIMULTANIOUS input from controller and keyboard! hundrets if not thousands of other games can do it, pls dont over look that small detail because its actually huge.

cheers

I believe its something they plan to add as they work on Early access, could of swore I seen a interview with JR talking about its in the works just not ready at the start of EA. Personally I prefer to sort loot and interact with interfaces with MK but game time Im all about using controller.

sadly thats not what that Q&A was about, it was just about bouth being usable without changing it in the game opptions -> switching seamless (thats how it is in D4 aswell).

what im asking for is that bouth input devices work literally at the same time not canceling each other out.

just seeing a high possibility that they do it like D4 did and call it a day instead of doing it right to begin with... which would put such a mechanic wayyyy at the end of the "things to do" for them aka never gona happen soon.

but yeah, there is hope.
