Doesn't steam have native support for ds4?
Yeah, it does. This can sometimes require launching steam in Big Picture Mode first, then select the game you want. A bit annoying to take that extra step but Steam has upped their ps5 controller support lately.
But I play mostly from gog, and my Intel GPU doesn't play nice with the steam overlay (transparency becomes black and everything becomes 5 fps)
Also it means I have to waste 15 precious minutes troubleshooting the game. Pad isn't recognized, try via steam, add it manually, see if it works via xinput, and so on.
what if the game isnt on steam?
You can still launch games through steam and use steam's assets.
How do you not know you can add any game or program to steam?
