I just use a normal keyboard and a Power A brand PS3 controller, no special drivers needed at all.
Power A awesome
Eh that's the one I got, problem is it's cheaply made so they don't last a whole year
It's gotten to where the buttons stick, and I wasn't crazy about the shape/feel/weight of it the day I got it. I don't see why they can't make them with the same standards as the regular ps controllers, with the weird shape/feel they do use I feel like I'm buying some 5$ bootleg.
I haven't seen good controllers for the FF series since they had that really cool one for X-2 (although I'm not sure it was actually meant to be used...) The one they had for XII was better made than the snakebyte but it burned through batteries too fast, and it still didn't have a normal shape.
Hopefully when the ps3 version comes out they'll release a regular ps3 sixaxis controller but with the FFXIV graphics on it, if they sell more of the cheap ones fine but they should make top dollar ones for those of us who don't mind paying for it.
I have a normal shitty keyboard and a normal shitty IR mouse. Wired, the lot of them. I play just fine.
There also this lol

I play with my wireless Xbox 360 controller. It's not FFXIV branded though...
Care to share why? It's built like a tank, and the software is pretty nice if not slightly difficult to get used to. The layout of the extra buttons is fantastic. I especially like the fact that some of the extra keys are raised or shaped differently so that they are easy to find without looking. The backlit keys are nice too, I can change their backlight color, allowing me to see them more easily when I'm using my 3D glasses. I honestly don't see a downside, but maybe you can enlighten me.
i don't like how the keys on the side are mapped t the standard keys and cant be remapped. ive had it for 1.5 years and some of the keys are sticking giving me more typos then normal. I was really hoping to just be able to macro some of the keys but they are mapped to the other keys.
i got my moneys worth outta it so now im looking for a new one.
yea, but anything you remap would remap on your keyboard too. i just wanted to make some black so i can macro them.
like the 1-10 on the left game pad area. i wanted to make them macro buttons but i cant.
they are linked to the 1-0 on the reg keyboard part.
Ill most likely get this one next,
