Whether you use a traditional control-scheme, similar to what you did for the console-versions (none of the other bells and whistles, mind you, JUST movement and combat controls), or even if you're willing to consider support the new, admittedly bizarre Steam Controller, I think it's safe to say that there is really no good reason not to allow it.

Again, it's not as though the entire game needs to function with a controller, merely character-movement and abilities, and a button to pick up nearby items.

Otherwise, everything else about this expansion looks amazing!

We're glad you're excited about Reaper of Souls!

We'll have a lot more information about it in the coming months, but at this time we don't have any plans for supporting analog controller hookup for the PC version of Diablo III. Similarly, since the console version of Diablo III was designed from the ground up with a controller in mind, the PlayStation 3 and XBox 360 version of Diablo III do not support USB mice or keyboards.
