What are you playing this game with: a gamepad or kbm

[Passthegrenadeplease]

I'm debating whats best suited for this type of game

Controller is probably best but both are 100% fine. You might need to rebind some stuff to make m&k better for you though.

What you are used to most is best.

1st time I played with K/M and it was perfectly fine

Now Im playing with controller and it's challenging.
Default controls are Dark Souls-like (attack on RB), and since DS I really grow accustomed to more normal type of controls (X on attack, etc), by playing Nioh.
So muscle memory always works against me and I always press wrong buttons.

But combat mechanics are pretty much build around default setting, so even after changing the controls to NIOH-like, I feel clunky, because Run is on the same button, as Dodge, and you can't convinietly Run and Strike, which is pretty big here.

Did not decide, how I will play. More likely X-Attack

I will be using m & k, like I do with all souls-likes. Works for me perfectly.
