Mouse support
Dear developers, please add mouse support so that I can assign mouse buttons to basic actions. As a PC gamer, it is difficult for me to play only on the keyboard

I also agree :)

Bumpage.

Octopath Traveller 2 has a perfect M+K implementation for a JRPG. Thought we had finally nailed the formula on PC for the genre.

Would love to see something similar here. Having no Mouse bindings allowed at all is.. not great for this platform.

I would love to.. but do a search of the controller shortcomings on this forum (No ability to swap icons to the platform we are familiar with, no PS icons in third party controllers etc.) and I figured I atleast *know* what the Keyboard UI prompts are that the game is telling me, as opposed to needing guess work and keep getting myself confused between Xbox/Nintendo's interpretations of what XBAY means :/

Bro the game barely even has any inputs or prompts, it's a turn based JRPG where you are confirming and cancelling actions. There's ONE actual thing that you can do on the field that's not confirm/cancel and it's in your LEFT face button, regardless if it's X, Y, or square.

Like this stuff is not hard, I don't understand how anyone would get confused by button prompts. Every controller has the same layout, and if a game has xbox prompts on a nintendo pad you can just follow the game, X will be left, etc. It takes like 2 minutes to get used to, let alone in a turn based JRPG.

100% this. I truly cannot understand the entitlement of the people complaining here. Its absurd. YOu can even remap any button with steam input. So just remap it to match the 1 or 2 prompts that you have in the game.

You know, I am starting to think most of these people are just trolls, People really can't be this big of Karens. Its ridiculous.

Settle down, some of us haven't had a chance to play it properly yet, timezones being what they are.
I said I 'heard' it uses a QTE system in battle. I don't know the specifics. If there's no onscreen prompts then that is great news.

Disagree with your last paragraph though. 30+ years of muscle memory knowing where the NIntendo layout is doesn't just go away after 2 minutes of playing a game with Xbox prompts.

This is not how the phrase is used. Not when concerns are legitimate.
Let's not forget this thread is about a PC game on the PC platform enquiring about a lack of native PC controls. I already namedropped something else that got it 100% perfect, so there's no reason any other game that comes after it can't follow suit and borrow from the same winning formula is all.

So You havent even played the game yet and you are in here complaining?

I'm playing it now. There's literally like, 2(?) fights in the prologue before you're sent back to them as kids in a flashback. Not exactly enough time for me to determine how the combo/QTE/timing thing in fights work just yet.

Jeez.

Just look at the octopath traveler
Same turn base combat but it has perfect k+m support.
Steam is for PC players, but devs don't even bother add inputs for mouse

+1 for mouse bindings!

The game for sure is glorious, but would like any other game out there benefit from more input options (aka accessibility feature no 1).

I'm PC only for 30+ years and don't even have a controller. For the over 1000 titles I played in this time, I'm fine with that.

+1 for mouse.
Bulllyy Aug 29, 2023 @ 4:49pm 
Played the demo and agree. I should be able to bind the mouse on a pc game.
