Keyboard to Controller Key Binding?

[chazz]

I'm used to playing dark souls on a controller. when I open the key bindings I see the configurations for keyboard but not for xbox 360. Is there any way to fix the this?

You can't rebind controllers in this game. The only things you can change are jump (from L3 to B, but it makes your jumps shorter) and camera sensitivity.

You can use Steam-input by enabling "XBOX Controller Configuration Support" for this game in the Steam-settings (Steam --> Settings --> Controller --> General Controller Settings). Then, when highlighting this game in your Steam-library under the big green "PLAY"-button will be a new option "Controller Configuration". There you can rebind controller buttons.
Note that the in-game button prompts are static and will not reflect any changes made.

is it still possible to enjoy the game this way?

Guess you'll have to find that out for yourself, because the default layout is the most comfortable for me, because that's what the game's been designed around. You can probably get used to the wrong button prompts.

I managed to change the controller settings through Steam's Big Picture option.
Select the game Dark Soul 2 -> before playing go to the controls option on the right side, press A, then A, then you can change the buttons.
Example, you press the X button on the right side, and the complete controller will appear, and you press the button that you want to replace the the X. This worked perfect for me. This way you leave it more similar to Dark Soul 1.

The best thing is that in Big Picture mode you can run it with the game open with the central menu/home button on your joystick
