Xbox One Controller Workaround
By vinirockman
If you came here, you're probably looking for a workaround for the Xbox One Controller to play Steep. Looks like Ubisoft messed up the controller support on their "official configuration", thinking all key bindings will match with Steam Controller. I came across several workarounds all over the internet and this was the only one that I can consider reliable. (Credits to TheSneezingMonkey)

Requirements
First things first. You have to have a Xbox One Controller.
The problem
Looks like Ubisoft messed up the controller support on their official configuration, thinking all key bindings will match with Steam Controller. Somehow, during the game, the buttons and their respective commands go completely messed up. Once you detect you have this problem, there's a reliable fix for the mess that Steep does with a Xbox One Controller.
This seems to be the most reliable option so far. I came across several workarounds and this was the only one that I can consider reliable enough to recommend here.
The Workaround
  1. Go to Steam Big Picture Mode.
  2. Go to Settings.
  3. Go to Controller Settings.
  4. Make sure that Xbox Configuration Support is deactivated.
  5. Go to your Library.
  6. Find Steep.
  7. Go to Manage Game.
  8. Go to Controller Configurations.
  9. Go to Browse Configurations.
  10. Go to Community.
  11. Find one configuration that works for you.
  12. Play Steep.
Additional details
Keep in mind that you'll have to launch Steep in Big Picture Mode to make this work.
Also, if you feel like your controller configuration still gets completely messed up during the game, you can try LT+RT to make them come back to normal. It works sometimes if you don't wanna do any changes or restart the game imediatelly.

I did it and the game still doesn't work. I've done 8 "workarounds" at this point and none have worked
