How it feel with Mouse and keyboard?

[Rhanos]

Is it easy to use?I'm still downloading so I can't try it.

Kinda fine. There are some hotkeys that are not optimal. Like to hold block key and press 5, 6, 7 or 8 key. For some skills. It would be really nice, if i could put them on WSAD keys too. Because i dont move when i block. But the game wont allow it.
The menu only is controllable with the keyboard. Left and Right Click are accept and cancel.
Chocobo digging. The game wants us to use the arrow keys.........

There's a weird ass bug during combat that makes your camera have a seizure while you attack ♥♥♥♥ and you can't disable whatever is causing it so that's fun. Other than that It's fine. Most of those weird binding choices can be fixed in settings and the controls for M&K are much better than the Remake controls.

You must be a masochist to even attempt to play this kind of game with KB+M, because it was obviously designed to be played with a controller.

Just saying.

Not bad, but if you just put away the Remake or Crisis Core Reunion, you'll have some nasty keystroke habits to break. The good news is that they streamlined a lot of the keystrokes so it's a significant gesture reduction to get things done. Bad news is that M and N no longer do anything even though you'll still be reaching for them out of habit. :)

edit: the synergy skill keybinds are terrible. awful. rest is fine.

You can scroll up and down the menus with your scroll wheel. FYI

You have no idea! I play Devil May Cry games with my mouse. But, its not that difficult, when you have 12 buttons on the side of your mouse.

im having the weird camera bug on fights too, and actually quite often its distracting, the camera just spazz from the top when hitting the enemies sometimes

usually game like this I would play with controller but my controller just got drift problem recently and my budget not enough to get new one right now so I decide to play with M+KB.

I was gonna say this:

"
Play a little bit
Take notes of what feels annoying or weird
Go to settings and fix that
Repeat
"

But the more I play on a friend's PC, the more I think there are things you cannot fix unless you master the keybinds, and even then, meybe not.
And if you do, better not take a break of the game, because there are a lot of keybinds.

Like, you move with WASD, while using the mouse to attack and move the camera, and the tutorial tells you to use the keyboard arrows to change character. I can't find the option to change this to something that makes more sense.
EDIT1:
Found it. The menu doesn't tell you, but the arrows at the bottom of the keybind list are the ones that control that part. You can't edit those, but you can add secondary keyboard binds (and even a mouse bind).
I put Z as left and C as right.

Also, there is no cursor on the menu. But you do move the menu camera a little bit! Perfect for gaining a free headache!
I changed the menu keybinds so E is confirm, Q is back and spacebar is Y/triangle equivalent (you gonna see what I mean)

And there is a bug that, when you attack, the camera just snaps to a random position. Weird and annoying af. Actually unplayable.


I keep saying one thing after playing Sekiro on K&M with minimal changes to the keybinds.
It is not that some action type games are meant to be played on controller. It is that the default keybind is so braindead, that you have to put extra effort to even being able to start a playthrough.

I tried controller on this game and gave me a headache. The camera has something weird to it. As reference, Remake is fine.

I dare u all beating "Piano concert" with keyboard n mouse in this game...
its probably 20 different keys and ontop of that different tones or what its called..

ijklom. and qweasdxc and so on with keyboard and i ask all of u ???

How the H*ll did they think this through??
I mean after 10 tries it was still close to impossible....

Why not make this way easier on pc then it was i ask??

Did any of you get top scores the 1st time u tried this with Tifa???

Just another thing that made me anoyed w this game(after having fun this happened just sucks big time) could have been kind of fun...but wrong devs who made the game i guess!

[Nanaki]

I only play with M+KB
It is weird and makes it more hard than with controller on some points. but also easier on other points like:
Chapter 6 Spoiler:
the Costa del Sol Minigame where you have to shoot to score

This can be fixed when you lock on Target, then the Camera doesn't snap around anymore. It happens in the first place when your target moves out of your camera vision so the game tries to "fix" it. :)

I Achieved an A on that concert and a star on my own. it's possible and not hard just need to train a little more.
i just learned the right side first then the left side. together i just played it then it's actual really fun and i love that feature!

It's good, they improved the K+M controls from Remake.

How do you mean?, for me it's an improvement, i no longer need a mod to fix the issues i had previously, such as using WASD controls in menu.

[stylegamr]

I played Remake all on keyboard and mouse (as well as FFXV.
For exploring k+m is better and you need to remap the keys,
otherwise controller is better for all the other game controls.
