Gamepad support?
You can, it’s not native, but you can make it work with third-party applications. I had it set up for my wife for a little bit and checked it out. I personally didn’t much care for it. However, with the action camera it might be more feasible than it was.
I followed this thread: https://forum-en.gw2archive.eu/forum/game/players/Xbox-360-controller-and-Guild-Wars-2-merged/first
People were using an xbox controller, which is what I used. But I am sure there are some other xpadder like programs that you could use that essentially to do same thing. You’d have to find one that works with your particular gamepad.
It’s the chain I beat you with until you

A third-party solution works, but it’s too much trouble for me. It never really works all that well. I can play GW2 with the Oculus Rift if I wanted to, but because GW2 doesn’t support it natively, the result is a bit hit and miss. (even if we ignore the fact GW2 doesn’t have a decent first-person mode.) A native support for gamepads would be much appreciated.
Xbox controller here, and Xpadder.
And a bit of keyboard and mouse.
