Shmacky-McNuts: ^^ Which is my point. Customer confirmation and with which controller and which input. I rarely use controllers, as I hate most games that use them. But a list is a good idea. Since gog listings are vague. Fat chance they will change the site.
Yeah a threat is probably ok, but usually that information is available also on the game specific forums. E.g. I found out about the game controller fixes for Legacy of Kain/Blood Omen/Soul Reaver games from those subforums, the one for Soul Reaver 2 works great (I didn't test if SR2 would work fine without the fix, with a legacy DirectInput gamepad).
A gamepad is great for e.g. driving games, many "vehicle combat" games, beat'em ups, slash'em ups, generally melee combat games etc. For instance the aforementioned Soul Reaver 2, especially as its mouse/keyboard controls are wonky.
While we are talking about PC gamepads, I highly recommend this one:
8Bitdo Pro 2 Bluetooth Controller Hall Effect Edition
https://www.amazon.com/Bluetooth-Controller-Joystick-Wireless-Gaming-Console/dp/B0CSPH1JYV Just make sure you get the newer updated version with hall effect analog sticks.
It is pretty much perfect:
1. Works with PC (both XInput and DirectInput modes; the latter works also with Android devices and e.g. Raspberry Pi I believe), and Nintendo Switch (which I also own, so good to have that option too).
2. Has the hall effect analog sticks which are commonly considered superior to older potentiometer sticks, especially for durability.
3. Works both wirelessly (Bluetooth), or you can connect it also with a normal USB-C => USB-A cable to use it as a wired controller.
4. The battery is easily replaceable and you can even use normal AA batteries instead. If you use it in the wired mode, you don't even need the battery inside.
The only downside I've heard that for some the little switch at the back of the controller, which determines in which mode the controller is (XInput, Nintendo Switch or DirectInput/Android), may have become broken after which they are unable to change the mode. With the earlier 8bitdo gamepads you selected the mode either with a Windows application or certain button combinations with the controller, which don't have this weakness.
