I've stopped playing ED since after playing Odyssey for a little bit at launch, it was probably in 2020, now I got upgraded my HOTAS to VKB one and here lies the problem, this has been known for years but it never affected my previous setup so this wasn't a problem for me, but now apparently if I want to get back to ED, it is my problem now...
I'm sure many of you here already aware of this by now, it's the fact that the game don't recognize a controller with more than 32 buttons, or so people told me... and yes I'm aware that there are workaround, but AFAIK the workaround also affects other games and the whatnot depending on your hardware and how you configure the hardware....
but this is beyond stupid IMO, we're getting closer to 2025 and yet the game still contain fundamental quirks from 1980/90s era of games and software, I think this is unacceptable, also especially given I asked some people too and nobody was aware that any other contemporary games (especially in similar genre of games) that suffers from the same limitation as ED in this matter...
and given that somehow this hasn't been solved/patched yet it probably means it couldn't be done with this iteration of the game.
so why haven't they tried to make a new game then? also with all the advancement in video gaming from the last 5 years that this game lacks, they really need to make a new game, not prolonging this ancient piece of software design carried within this game.
