For keyboard and mouse users there should be default recommended input settings that game suggest to use or even better game set up this as default.
Default run towards the cursos should be binded to mouse right click as this makes movement and platforming so much better to be able to use precise directional movement with mouse.
In my own current setting i binded run towards to mouse cursor into right click and walk towards the cursor into mouse 5 (but that mouse 5 cant be default as not every mouse have mouse 5 button).
Anyways run towards the mouse cursor binded in mouse right click as default would be most important one and will make game so much more enjoyable for mouse users while still be able to use WASD more for combat situations etc. And this setting will anyway keep WASD available to use as alternative movement. (Like for an example i use both while playing, moving around and platforming with mouse right click and in combat situations WASD have some more use)
I strongly believe that if you make it so that this input is set up is default and even bring up a tool tip about mouse right click running at the start of the game it will have positive impact for player retention and overall more positive opinion and experience for the game.
So i beg you please make this rather small but very important change for input defaults to help new users to get better experience in game.
You realize you can rebind keys, right ? Who even cares about the defaults, as long as you can do it ?
I’d expect any KB/M users to rebind most / all keys to suit their tastes (which this game allows, though it’s still a bit buggy). Don’t people check game’s options and keybinds these days ?
Everything is subjective - for me the best thing for RMB is parry, and even that is very game specific (in some it’s parry, in some it’s block, in some others it’s dodge).
Well appereantly not as this tip have helped ppl + this game is almost unplayable if u try to platforming with wasd so that’s why it would be good to have default it in mouse to make it playable since start and provide better first feeling and impression for players without needing to dive into setting straight away or even worse some ppl just quit the game as many comes into judgement that MnK movement is just bad and they simply do not bother even to try different settings to find out that MnK is actually very good if done right with proper binds.
When I tried the game for the first time, I was impressed by the new control scheme — it felt very intuitive. But anyway, both control options are available, and you can switch between them anytime in the settings, so I can’t agree with your opinion.
You do realize you can also move towards cursor with alt pressed and run with shift pressed by default, right? Which can make platforming easier if you struggle with WASD set.
And I strongly doubt that a lot of people playing a souls/arpg game never heard about going to settings and rebinding to their preference.
