I wanted to play this game with my Steam controller, and since I spent a good bit of time figuring this out, I thought I would share. The best way I have found so far to configure the Steam Controller for this game is to start Steam and configure the Desktop Configuration for the controller with whatever layout you want to use for playing Die By the Sword. I went with
a modified "Mouse with WSAD key layout" and then set the game to use mouse VSIM with the right circular trackpad acting as the mouse (could never get it to work like a joystick) and thus your weapon. I think made some modifications to the controller mappings since the game does not use WSAD. Once you have it set up, start the game itself (I am starting it using GOG Galaxy). Hope this helps someone out there enjoy this game.
