Experiment in progress…
Can I get this Gulikit KingKong 2 Pro controller to work with my Mac… and the game, “No Man’a Sky”?
There are a lot of words that don’t intrinsically belong together in that sentence. Like “Mac” and “controller”… or “game”
But! Reddit said I should be successful, and that’s completely trustworthy!
(I should add that I don’t believe a word of this and bought the controller cheaply secondhand. I guess I believe about half a word . Anyway, no harm, no foul.)
This is born from the fact that I love playing NMS in VR but in truth… it’s janky and my poor old pc has a 1060 graphics card.
The game is surprisingly pretty good on the M1 Mac (my main machine) but I don’t really like the mouse and keyboard controls.
This is how we fell down this oddly niche rabbit hole.
The backup is to use the controller with my pc. Totally doable if I move the computer, but why when I could try what no sensible person does and game on my Mac?
@elizabethtasker I'd genuinely be surprised if the controller doesn't work on your Mac! Good luck!
@powersoffour thanks! My suspicion is that it may connect to my Mac but still be ignored by NMS without a lot of fiddling (so hint internet rumours). But eh, it’s a long weekend here And if I get annoyed enough, I’ll stop phaffing around and replace my pc.
