failure

I would've loved the game, but the console port just killed it. absolutely horrible controls if youre playing with keyboard and mouse. the mechanics that handle the melee and fire weapon are bs. stupid console game.

Hey Riley. For us on PC using mouse and keyboard you should find that you can remap controls to suit whatever you need :)

couldnt find it, then Im sorry about that. but the rest is still valid. movement is not made for keyboard and mouse. feels just awful. and why do I have to hit something 4 times to be able to instant shoot a bullet that I cant even aim ?! its so weird. but maybe its not meant to be realistic and just wants to be an arcade action adventure

I try to always lock on to an enemy when I fire the flintlock unless there's an enemy right in front of me. If you fire it when the enemy isn't 10 feet in front of you it can completely miss them. The flintlock pistol actually has some pretty good range on it as long as you lock onto the enemy first.

you dont get it.. I dont wanna be locked out of using that pistol by having to hit with my mainhadn several times, and I wanna aim myself and not just use some silly lock on target mode without any freedom. throw this game to the controller community.. but anyway... it seems people dont like the game at all. no idea why, if the combat would be different I wouldve played it but this is garbage. the protagonist looks cool to be fair. but so far the map is very linear too.

I did complete game using PS5 dualsense controller and even tho game is telling buttons for xbox controller i gotta say it just feel more natural with controller to play any of these kind games i couldnt personaly see myself dodge shoot at same time on mouse and keyboard as with controller xbox or ps it's just so well mapped to do all actions

Uh... You have to recharge your gun by attacking because the whole point of the system is that you're meant to mix melee, guns, and magic together. That's the point. It's like asking why you have to pick up ammo for your shotgun in Doom 2016 by glory killing stuff: Because that's the gameplay loop. The pistol isn't your main weapon, it's a way to interrupt enemies mid-combo or set them up for other things. You can get secondary guns that can be aimed and fired at range though.

I found the KBM controls to be perfect with some rebinding. It's just, if you want a gun you manually aim and fire and don't want to use melee, you're looking for a different game. This is a hack and slash game. Not a shooter.
