I am using a GameStop controller and had some initial problems getting FFXIV to recognize it, finally had to reload FFXIV from scratch to get the game to recognize it. However, I just bought a new notebook ASUS N53S which runs the game beautifully, except I can't get the game to recognize the controller! Tried reloading and reinstalling and changing drivers and nothing works. The controller works fine in the controller test screen so I know it is not a hardware or computer problem... it is something odd about the FFXIV setup. Square-Enix needs to figure out what it is doing wrong and fix it.
