Controls.

I noticed on one of the screenshots that the main attack / defense (what appears to be, anyway), are bound on Z and X. Does it mean it's keyboard / controller only or can we use the mouse to attack as well? This makes or breaks the purchase for me, I cannot stand having to mash a key to do a basic auto attack. I also cannot stand arrow keys to move, which seems to be the logical thing here considering that all the normal move keys are bound to spells and such.

You can bind actions to mouse buttons, such as using left mouse to attack and right mouse to block. You can't "click to move" like in Diablo, though, so you'll need to use WASD or something for movement (which I reckon you understood, but I wanted to make it clear)!

To expand the use of the mouse, you can use shift and ctrl as modifiers, so that regular left click is attack, but shift + left click is a spell, for example.

I normally advise people to try the demo before buying, but it has not yet been updated with this feature, so you could either wait for the demo to be updated in 1-2 days, or try the real game and issue a refund if you find the controls to be awkward.

No, that's good enough. If I can rebind everything where I want it's not a problem. Click to move or key to move are both fine, it's just forced arrow keys that are an issue. Modifiers are nice, it's better if we can set any modifier though, because games that use them tend to lock shift, control and alt from the normal key pool because of that. Not a big problem though.

I'll buy the game when it's done, but I just wanted to make sure the controls weren't going to get in the way of entertainment.

Edit: One last question: Do you use "turn to cursor" behavior for attacks? I suppose not since the mouse was not your first choice for binding.

What I mean is, is there any visible cursor during combat, or will the character attack when I click towards whatever direction I was facing at the time? I prefer to have a cursor to be able to attack while walking backwards, but it's also a balance choice so I can play with either.
