Why is there no controller button to bring up the pause menu?

[Vahnkiljoy]

You make the game to be made with controllers as the main way of controlling but don't have a button to bring up the pause menu at all? Very odd and kind of annoying having to use my keyboard to quit the game.

uhhh press start

On my ps4 controller none of those buttons(options/share) do anything and the only settings I have changed is the visual display of them to ps4 buttons.

im using a ps4 controller and pressing on options brings up the pause menu

can confirm on my ps4 controller pressing start bings up the pause menu

If I could even set my controller buttons up I'd at least fix the issue but they ONLY have keyboard controls, so odd. In fact my options/start button just brings up my map the same way R3 does.

In the options menu you can set which controller buttons display during a run. Mine shows XBox controller buttons to match the controller I use. Maybe try checking the settings. It might be on an "auto" option that's not correctly detecting the PS4 controller for some reason?

[Vahnkiljoy]

Well that literally just dictates which button prompts are shown onscreen, you could have a ps4 controller for instance but still show the xbox prompts. Why they even have that setting and don't have it auto detect is beyond me.

It... does auto-detect. But apparently in your case the auto detect isn't working. So you can set it manually.

EDIT: Sorry I'd misread thought you were asking for the button prompts to show on-screen and saying it showed keyboard prompts. My bad. Still one point that might be worth noting for people whose controller isn't detecting correctly though.

Also are you running in big picture mode? Because some games have in-built support that big picture does weird things to, might be worth trying either disabling that if it's on or enabling if it's not already running.

[Vahnkiljoy]

No I don't use big picture mode though I have already done the step that some games require where you open big picture mode to set the overall detection setting via big picture to help steam out for some reason. No in the button config screen it ONLY shows pc controls, nothing in the way of controller buttons to set or anything.

[obliviondoll]

Oh right, the no controller remapping thing. Yeah, the controls are clearly meant to work (and working for other people with the same kind of controller as you) differently from your experience. Might be worth emailing devs with a bug report on that, because it's definitely broken somewhere along the way.

You CAN at least reshuffle the spell positions to "remap" the main gameplay controls, but it does suck a little that map/menu stuff is locked.
