so i want to get this game and wanted to know 1. is this game better with a controller? 2. whats the sported controller for this game? thanks in advance

I think the supported controller is the Xbox's.
But I'm not so sure, since the game has been a glitchfest recently, people seem to have difficulties even in dowloading the game.

It does support the Xbox Controller.
I find it much more comfortable to play the game with a controller rather than with a keyboard.

but will this game work good with a nintendo switch pro controller?

I have not yet checked but with steam you should be able to use a switch controller to play the game, just have to set it up in big picture mode (for some reason they have the controller configuration only in there)

Edit: so far the switch pro controller works like an xbox controller (you'll see prompts for that) everywhere except in the menus, where you sometimes need mouse input.

I've played it with both controller (on PS2 back in the day) and keyboard (because I don't game enough these days to justify buying a controller for my comp).

On one hand, I like the precision that WASD gives me over a joystick - makes it a little simpler to do some of the platforming. On the other hand, I've never fully beaten the punching minigame with a keyboard, and I think it might have been mildly easier with a controller. So whatever control scheme you're most comfortable with, just go with it.

The program betterjoy will allow you to use your switch pro controller as an xbox controller via usb. It was made for use with emulators, but betterjoy is a standalone program that enables switch pro inputs for any game that is designed for xbox controllers

betterjoy is great, but you don't need it with steam games, as steam has that same function.

Yes it definitely is, I've been using the xbox 360 pc controller but it has stopped working :( don't know why! Anyone else have this issue recently? I was playing it a couple of months ago no problem...

how did it stop working?

I'd personally recommend the Hyperkin Duke controller (an Xbone recreation of the original Xbox Classic one) so it feels like playing the Xbox version, but a 360 controller or basic Xbone one works fine.

As for how it plays, this is one of those PC games where mouse & keyboard isn't suitable: it's hard to find decent keys to bind everything to comfortably, at least it was for me. So I recommend using a controller for Psychonauts as it handles better that way, compared to most PC games.
