Good morning and thank you for posting on the Final Fantasy XIV Technical Support Forums.

The game should be able to read your controller even if it is detecting it as "Xbox 360 for Windows." What exactly do you mean by "button inputs are slow," is there some sort of input lag? Additionally, I don't believe the game will support the touch pad even it was reading it as a Dualshock 4 controller.

When was the last time you were able to get the controller to work the way you wanted?

We hope we can be of assistance in helping you enjoy the exciting world of Final Fantasy XIV!
