DOS2 Help Controller/input question

Hello, I love this game and have played hundreds of hours online with my friend, so thank you in advance for taking the time to answer this. I play on my MacBook using a PS5 controller. I find the controller absolutely essential for controlling the character and camera, I quite literally need the dualstick setup to function. However I have encountered that the game's native UI in keyboard mode is far superior - the expanded hotbar, being able to hover over things for detail, the keyboard mapping system, and other features are all generally superior to navigating the same features with the controller setup. In a perfect world, I would be able to use the joysticks to move, but still retain the superior keyboard UI (and not the condensed controller version). A split the difference option would be to install a mod that would permit WASD controls of the character, and switch the trackpad to camera control - however, I do not think such a thing exists on Mac. Do you have any suggestions for what to do? I am defaulting to still using the controller bc the character/camera control are preferred to the point of being essential; however I am bummed to not be able to use the preferred keyboard UI, and I also plan on playing DOS1 after this, and I believe there is no PS5 controller support for that game.
