Inconvenient controls for left-handed people. not 1 game.
A huge request for permission to change the control for skills, since I work with the mouse with my left hand, and I perform the rest of the actions on NumLock or an additional keyboard.

Are you playing New World in a server room or something?

Why do you use the mouse on the left hand side, I have never met a single person who does this in my life?

Why do you have 2 keyboards?

Whats the relevance of the second keyboard?

Why is your second keyboard interfering with your controls? move it away?

Why the numpad?

You are the most interesting person on the planet right now no joke.

My first thought is you are playing NW in a broom closet that has a server in it.

They have said you can change your keybinds...

a lot of left hander's do this, if your right handed am sure it seems odd, but if your a leftie it makes sense for the very same reasons it seems odd to you

I'm left handed and I have never met someone who uses the mouse on the left, I work in IT.

The last thing that makes sense to me is using the mouse on the left and needing 2 keyboards right in front of me.

You're requesting something that's been in the game since alpha. key rebinds are simple.

I'm a leftie too and I use the mouse in my left hand and rebind the forward, back, left, & right movement from WSAD to UP arrow, DOWN arrow, LEFT arrow & RIGHT arrow. It worked fine for NW beta.

Omg, now there is 2 of them, what do I do.

Yeah you should be able to rebind already.

I use P:L’ instead of WSAD. And everything from there is mirrored. The only things I don’t change are the Function keys and Fishing controls and everything works out just fine.

Hello fellow left-handed person. I played the open beta and if I remember correctly, you were able to put your key bindings on the numeric keypad. So I had the mouse on my left side. :lunar2020ratinablanket:

I'm going to have to call for back up, The problem is, I don't know how to use a right handed radio and I couldn't possibly just use my right hand for this task.

Why do you need back up? That thing in my hand is a cigarette. That thing as my side is a bag. You think you’re a policeman?

I am left-handed, I control the mouse with my left hand, move on arrows, special abilities and so on on numlock and end, home, insert, enter, right shift, pgup, pgdn, del.

When I was little, I could do many things with both hands. But in the Russian Federation, children were very aggressively retrained in my time with the use of physical force. And in this regard, I hated the right hand. And before, I could write with both my left and right hand. I also work in the field of it. I use symmetrical mice. Although I saw a couple of models for the left hand as they do for right-handers, I could not get it.

Once again I will try to explain in more detail.
We have three skills, the Q, R, F keys cannot be changed, they are not even in the control settings. Now imagine that you are playing with the mouse in your left hand, running on the arrows, the rest of your actions are on the additional num keyboard, and skills on qrf are convenient, isn't it?
