All of the Dark Souls game are playable with both Keyboard and Controller , only remember to disable the Double-Click option ( Idk why they implemented that in this game , but remember to always disable it ).

this

always to disable it EVERYTIME you turn the game on,
even if you save the settings and all, it will auto disabled, so just change it again

It is, but you may need to rebind some keys. I forget exactly why, but I removed everything from the mouse via in-game key settings, but then put attacks back on mouse via autohotkey.

The worst part is that you have to try and figure out what buttons do what when it comes to menu screens or prompts.

Dark Souls 2 technically supports keyboard, but this was in the age before From Software actually put any thought into keyboard controls and only slapped it on as an afterthought.
Alas, I cannot personally vouch that you'll have a good time with Ds2 if you use Keyboard + Mouse. I can vouch that it works great for a controller, and if you don't have one that's compatible with your PC you can pretty easily order one online for $30USD or less.

It's not playable, you can't fully control your personage, for example it's not always striking when you click a right-click. I was trying to set everything up but I'm didn't manage to do it. It's not correctly working after all - it's not playable when personage doesn't strike at the time when you need it.
I had found on the internet that DS2 wasn't meant to be played on PC that's why devs didn't pay much attention for making it perfectly fine for PC.
It took me more than 2 hours to figure out and Steam didn't return me money for the game according to their policy you should play less than 2 hours to be able to get money back.

Thats the fault of double click. Turn it off, and the game actually works.

you may be better of binding heavy attacks on keyboard buttons
and never forgett

For me keyboard controls is way better then gamepad. At least xbox 360 one.
Running and jumping on keyboard is just better. Fast flicking camera also better for me.

Ye, if you prefer keyboard, use it, if you prefer controller, use that.

The Double-Click option is bugged as hell and horrible, so take note of that.

I use Kb&M for all souls games, and it's good. You can navigate menus more consistently with controller though (for 'quick-swaps' of equipment).

My personal binding (dunno maybe it's default) is Left-Heavy on CTRL - so you have a consistent 'parry' button.
