Keyboard vs Controller

[Trucker jo]

Been switching back and forth recently trying to find keybinds for individual moves without having to destroy my fingers. Controller just has this on the sticks, but it's kind of annoying to use. Both seem kind of annoying to use and they both have their pluses, but I was wondering what other people use?

WASD moves, shift = dodge, space = jump, H = grab item, J = normal attak, K = Special attack, U = neutral attack, I = Neutral Special

I prefer controller but sometimes using keyboard so I can alt tab from a certain family member 😄

Wasd for movement
Right arrow is jump

4 normal attack
5 special
6 neutral attack
Shift neutral special

Space or enter (numeric) dodge

1 down attack
2 down special
7 up attack
8 up special

Not really using 1 7 8 because it messes up with my brain. Not used to using keyboard for this game.

I played it a lot on Keyboard + Mouse in beta fine but trying controller on release version since I bought one recently to play Eiyuden. They both have their ups and downs.

Such as it's harder to aim and redirect attacks in certain directions with WASD vs Analog but better precision/accuracy with what directional attacks go off. I feel I'm more likely to queue up too many attacks on controller too, wonder if I can shorten/remove button queueing.

(WASD, Left/Right Mouse for Attack/Special, Side mouse buttons for dodge/neutrals/etc with 12-side-button MMO mouse)

I actually feel like I'm less likely to que up multiple attacks on controller. I have my special attacks bound to left stick and basic attacks bound to right stick. I just flick when I want an attack without spamming it, because I'm thinking that I want it to go in a specific direction.

Keyboard while it does feel great and more responsive. I feel like I'm losing a lot of momentum when trying to move to the left and attacking to the right.
