this game work with controller pop up
ok seriously, who thought that a pop up message that u must click on it is a good idea?
first of all, u should only tell me if the game doesn't support a controller and will only work with kbm cus games are made to be played with a controller.
ok, someone will not agree with this, that's cool. u see? you will hate it everytime u click to run a game and it tells u please connect your keyboard and press wasd to confirm u have a keyboard, lmao that's so funny!

yeah, same ♥♥♥♥ don't show me this stupid message about grabbing a controller everytime I run a game. seriously this is so annoying. even in a steam deck UI/OS on deck or whaterver it's annoying to see that screen, now we have it here too. it takes time instead of running the game u keep me waiting until I click on a confirm with my mouse while I'm setting back getting ready to play my game with my controller in my hand. like wtf steam do u even think?

Your recently played games list is empty so maybe that's the reason? This first happened for me on December the 11th.
It's happened when starting Star Wars Jedi Survivor and The Last of Us. It has never happened with prodigal though, or the recent Portal mod. It seems to be something that the game developers opt in to, but it is handled by steam and is part of the steam interface and appears similar to EULAs and dialogues that ask you which version of the game to load and other similar things.
LOL. Empty... okay.
There are multiple games on that list that have full controller support, at least two of which I have played using a controller since well after December 11, 2023.
And I have. never. seen. this. controller. prompt. message. ever.
Not before, not now.
So... sorry I don't launch 100 different games each week, and have to work 60 hours a week right now, so I don;t have much time to actively play many games right now.
But if this message pops up any time you launch a game that has full or partial controller support, I should have seen it at several times already.

Okay well I'm sorry if I offended you but I can only say things based on what I see. your recently played list appears empty to me. maybe a privacy option?
Anyway as you say you've played games with full controller support, but as far as I know, that's not a criteria. Prodigal has full controller support and it doesn't do it. Do you own Star Wars Jedi Survivor or The Last of Us? If so, and If this doesn't happen for you when you press play on those games, then that could be useful information.

My profile is fully public, except for profile comments. No private game info or games, and I am on Stable Client.
Any chance you or the OP are running the Beta Client, and this might be something being tested there right now?

And no, I don't own either of those games, and I am not about to buy them just to test if they are what is setting this message off for you or the OP (unless you are one and the same person posting under main and alt?).

I guess this is another issue with steam. I just did a quick search and it seems this is not an isolated issue. not that it matters. I already accepted that you played a number of games recently. It's all good.

I don't think anybody would expect you to buy games to test an issue you're not experiencing, I was just asking if it was convenient
Also... why would the OP do that? How would anyone benefit from that? I'm not sure why you would suggest that?
If you don't have the issue and don't have those games then I'm not sure what you are even doing here. Thank you for your feedback anyway.

I'm confused, what did I asked them to do?
I was just asking about the reason why when I already grapping my controller and setting back, and steam already sees the controller and the game is ready to play with a controller, at that moment u get a notification to tell u to play with a controller and u need to grap your kbm to close that notification and then get back to play with your controller. That's what I call a BS. That's it.
What did I asked anyone to do?

This popup is so stupid and frustrating. it tells you to "grab a controller and kick back" but most people have a controller and already grabbed it and already kicked back, but now because of Steam's stupid popup, they have to put the controller down and get up to use the damn mouse to get rid of this pointless pop up.

I won't buy games on steam now unless I have no option. I recently bought Cyberpunk and I specifically chose to buy it on GOG rather than steam because of stupid ♥♥♥♥ like this.
This explain the problem better if my wording is bad.

It's frustrating and stupid, but I wouldn't stop playing on steam for that.

Thing is, the notification will appear on the new games you plays or a games that u haven't played in a long time. It'll disappear after that, but it ruins the moment when u are in the mood to play a good game.
