I thought about checking that out again. I played on Xbox though and I'm not interested in moving to desk gaming (i.e. without a controller). I can't remember the exact map but I loved the night conquest. The darkness just added another level of fun for me.
I don't disagree that it's better. Just that I do not and will not game at a desk. Non negotiable. I sit at a desk enough I don't want to migrate to a different desk for my fun time too.
Do you have a USB cable for your Xbox controller(s)? Because I only play my PC games with a gamepad (or in the case of flight sims, flight sticks, or in the case of racing games, a racing wheel).
Most new gaming rigs have Bluetooth built in, so I can just pair my PlayStation controllers directly with the rig and call it a day. Bluetooth works seamlessly (not so much with the Switch controllers, though).
I have wired and wireless Xbox controllers; bought a wireless USB dongle and have an Atolla multi-port USB adapter where all the wireless dongles are hooked up for various devices. Setting up controllers in Steam's Desktop Configuration also enables using the controller like a mouse, so I can just navigate the desktop with the right analog and use the triggers as mouse buttons to open up programs. Means I don't even have to use a keyboard or mouse to even get into the games.
I use the USB dongle. I also have a trackball and a keyboard when I need it. I usually use the trackball to move around I can sit it on the arm of the couch, on a pillow, wherever. I can play FPS with it if I want, but I only do on older things I really want to play still. I could never be good enough with it to compete in competitive multiplayer and a PC game like Battlebit I'd just get embarrassed by desk players if I was on a controller. It's fine, I really don't care for competitive gaming anymore.
I never would have gone back to PC gaming if controller support wasn't such a thing now.
