Is it me or the PC port is trash ?
that my first play at this game and i am already disappointed in the controls ,
(maybe i am too rushy to write my negative opinion but still)
here are some problems with the port :

1. controls are just awful , I can understand playing it with any sort of game pad but on keyboard the normal controls fell very bad , any kind of different controls management.
2.very strange mouse (camera) rotation - it feels like it's on a delay , plus it feel no equal each time it's different.
3.fps - all apps shows me 60 fps (steam, nvidia,...) i got 3060 but I feel like there are some lags (maybe the problems associated with problem number 2 )

Controls are better with game pad, which has 2 analog inputs.
PC port itself is fine. I played both PS and PC.

Keyboard and mouse is only 1 analog input.
I've never try, but you may want to check out Nier Automata Input Overhaul Mod (NAIOM).

I used NAIOM with FAR/Special K mod, worked well for me.

1 - My first playthrough was on keyboard, never felt like using a gamepad. And you can toggle auto run on keyboard, can't do it on gamepad. Did you install Special K? It might solve many problems.

2 - You can try increasing the camera rotation settings, I do it after installing the game, on Replicant as well.

3 - My PC is a several years old potato compared to present-day PCs. Never had issues on my first playthrough, don't have them now, and I play in 1080p resolution with above average screen settings, also using GShade and HD Textures pack mods.

Again, if you haven't installed Special K yet, you know what to do.

I thought it was odd moving with a controller only gives 2 speeds. Super slow walking, and running. And sprint if you dodge. So 3 speeds. Most all new games have a variable walk/jog speed with a controller but not this?

Yeah, it's rather disappointing. (random but like, I'm annoyed that I can't match the speed of npcs walking during a guided section.) But I didn't think a lot of games don't really give analog movement speed like that.

Shame, Super Mario 64 set a great standard but few cared to follow lol
