WASD scripts

[Zilican]

I've seen people mention scripts that will allow wasd movement in the game (why it isn't in there by standard who the ♥♥♥♥ knows), does anyone know if these scripts are allowed, and if so, can provide a link?

because the majority of players dont like to play fast paced hack and slash games with WASD.

besides these scripts, why not put simply "move only" or your movement skill on W. for steering your need the mouse either way

Because in a game like this WASD controls simply arent effective?
You have games like grim dawn and victor vran do it because theyre a different flavor of ARPG with an emphasis on 'action'. They, most notably, have a dedicated 'dodge' button.

But games like the incredible adventures of van helsing and path of exile are true-to-form diablo type ARPGs, and do not have 'twin stick' controls. Its one of the reasons why console layout is rather different on PoE than it is on PC, and why GGG refuses to implement PC gamepad controls.

Played Pagan Online, WASD and skills on mouse buttons feels so much fun)
Path of Exile definitely must try this mechanics!

Does anyone tried this?

ya i wrote a simple AHK script that basically just acts like me facerolling all my keys at once, nothing that a person can't do but it simplifies the process and removes some of the strain of repetition

Makros like this are bannable.

Bannable? Yes.
Will they ever catch him? Chances are lower than low. People been doing this for years.

No reason to not make this an OPTIONAL OPTION.. AHK scripts for WASD work in Diablo 4, but I'm not gonna bother playing PoE without it.

PoE1 won't get WASD, they've cited technical issues but honestly I don't buy it. Doesn't matter though because PoE2 will have WASD movement and mouse aiming, devs have confirmed this.
