It's (still) a gamepad game.
Not racing wheel game.

Not a flight yoke & rudder pedals game.

Not a plastic guitar game.

Most of all: not a mouse game.

Not even really a keyboard-only game, but that would still be greatly preferable to trying to use a mouse for some ungodly reason.

You're trying to play this with an input method it was never designed for, and then complaining it doesn't feel intuitive. You're booting up Forza and complaining it's hard to steer precisely with just keyboard input.

Stop it.

You're being dumb.

I have no idea why it's even possible to use the mouse in this game, it clearly shouldn't be. I don't think it was possible in the original. I certainly never heard of anyone using it.

I have something like 200 hours in the original, as do some of my friends. One of them is a wierdo who never uses a gamepad even in games like Monster Hunter. Even he uses a gamepad for Risk of Rain. It's a 2D platformer, you use a gamepad.

Weird how I'm using left and right click just fine.

OP, what are you smoking? KB and KBM controls work exactly the same as gamepad in this game. RoRR doesn't take advantage of any of the systems that a gamepad has over KB and KBM. lol?

Playing on Hitbox at the moment, feels fantastic. Like keyboard, but a bit more ergonomic.

The game works great on deck w/ paddles mapped to the bumpers 👍

weird gate to keep

There's literally no utilization of analog inputs so it's a button game if anything, which keyboards are great for (just like in original RoR). IDK what you're smoking to say it's not a keyboard only game. Weird gate to keep as the person above me said.

It's too bad controllers don't have some sort of pad for directions, like a "directional pad" or something. Why did they get rid of those?

Thank you for giving me this idea. I always forget that I can use my Hitbox for more than fighting games!

No.

Hitbox is basically just KB&M and was so OP in the fighting game scene new rules needed to be introduced. You may not like it but KB&M is better than pad for platformers

But it works just fine. Even the first one did
I like using my gas and break to go left and right though.
