The game does not recognise analog gamepad buttons like the joysticks or triggers. These had to be reconfigured to keyboard buttons.

Be mindful that this game needs a LOT of button assignments and you will need to use the D-pad or left track pad to assign extra keys like swim up or down, scroll item left & right, etc. It can be tricky to keep track of the button assignments.

After all this the game played perfectly from a technical stand point but the game is clearly not designed for a gamepad - mouse aim never felt quite right with the right joystick and the trackpad, while better, doesn't offer enough (as in, both fast enough to quickly turn but accurate enough to aim accurately) to make it an enjoyable experience but this may be fixed with more tweaking.

As such, I'd say the game is perfectly playable ... but not that enjoyable for me because of lack of native joypad support which makes "mouse" aim difficult.

Also note the game was way too dark by default. I had to crank up gamma quite a bit.
