Controller + Mouse/Keyboard

Didn't GGG stated that in PoE2 We could swap actively between every mode? that they developed the game with that in mind but this was a feature that couldn't port to PoE1, or did I miss something in one interview at some point ?

Edit: For all of those who are replaying that we can swap between WASD and Mouse, I know that, but what I'm referring is, GGG said we could actively swap between the 3 methods without log out, but we currently can't, my ask is, why this isn't a thing and if they stated why isn't implemented yet

I really like how this works in D4. Unfortunately, you can't actively swap between input modes in POE 2.
You can actively swap between mouse and keyboard and WASD.

Sadly you currently have to log out to the character select screen to swap to controller.

What I would REALLY like is to be able to use controller like in many games, but still be able to just control the mouse to deal with inventory etc.

I like controller the best but I can't handle using it for inventory management etc. I need the mouse for that, so I end up using WASD.

It's not horrid, but....not as comfortable long term as my controller.

I have multiple times been tempted to log out to the character select and switch to controller cause I'm heading into an area that is gonna take 20+ minutes lol.

It's almost worth it.

Either A: being able to swap in game or B: being able to still use the mouse to click on stuff while using the controller for movement/attacks etc, would make this game much more fun for me.

I already love it, it would just improve it greatly.

I really hope they add it eventually.
Click to move and WASD can be toggled in play. Controller to keyboard and vise versa can be toggled at login screen. Keyboard and mouse can be used for minimum functions while in controller mode. And lastly, they did say it may be possible to dual support keyboard and controller at the same time but it isn't available now.

I do think that the controller function needs another pass. Will never go back to click to move after WASD and controller, click to move is outdated and I see that now.
