[x] that I haven't found an existing compatibility report for this game.
[x] that I have checked whether there are updates for my system available.
Symptoms
None of my controllers work! All the other games in my Steam library work just fine with controller. Horizon Zero Dawn does not detect any controller input from any of my controllers!
I’ve tried every version of Proton, even GE. I’ve tried deleting all game files, shadercache, compatdata, and controller config files from .local/share/Steam folder. I’ve tried reinstalling clean, tried with and without Steam Input and overlay, tried using the “SteamDeck=0” and “SteamDeck=1” flags. I’ve even tried a wireless 8BitDo Pro controller, wireless Xbox One controller, wired Xbox One controller, and even wired Xbox 360 controller from Afterglow. None of my controllers work in this game specifically, even under the most optimal conditions. I even deleted my save files! Ah!
Game runs just fine. I can play it with a mouse and keyboard, the benchmark runs great. Not how I wanna play it. I’ve heard even Windows users have issues with gamepads in this game. I used to be able to play it just fine. Somewhere along the way, they released a patch that completely broke controller input in this game and I’m not happy.
Reproduction
100% reproducible. Just connect any gamepad, it will not work. I’m on Bazzite in gamescope, but it also doesn’t work on the desktop.
