How is it on KBM?

[la sanie des siècles]

Just a simple question of how it feels, to clarify, I know KBM is ''sub-optimal'' for those kinds of games, but i've beaten all Souls and Sekiro and Hollow Knight while using it, so how bad it would be for someone used to it?

I'm barely out of the intro sequence, but so far it's not cumbersome or anything. There's no mouse movement required so you get a lot of keys to work with. The closest thing I've gotten to playing something like this is One Step From Eden, so if you're already used to it then it'll probably be pretty smooth for you.

theres nothing suboptimal about KBM for most of "these kinds of games"
most speedrunners even play with a keyboard

most metroidvania and platformer speedrunners use a controller, idk why but it's considered better for precise inputs or smth, that is why the game recommends to use controller when you first boot it up.

theres no imprecision when it comes to nine sols that would make a kb or controller better afaik, theres not even aiming or 360 movement
the one exception is maybe the little fly

I did 100% on kb/m. It plays fine. Don't sleep on it, NS is second best mv after HK.
