Teemeister: That's what I thought too, until I was in a fight and I had to
Dodge, block, switch between spells, cast spells, throw bombs, attack strong, attack fast, roll forward/backward/left/right, jump and last but not least move normally.
Somehow the four keys just won't cut it for me...
Game is unplayable for me as a leftie in its current state. Keybinding is broken and needs fixing, period.
Brogan80: Well, understandably, nobody's playstyle is exactly the same, and I have been spending almost all of my playtime thus far trying out different combinations of mappings.
But as for your example, how I have it set up is:
I remapped Jump to RMB, remapped Parry/Witcher Sense to the first thumb mouse button, remapped cast sign to the 2nd thumb button (still change signs via mouse wheel), and remapped Strong attack to the top middle mouse button. I use the Numpad buttons for things like throw bombs, and the dodge function is performed by holding RMB (jump) + a direction arrow key.
So, while I am far from effective at fighting still, I can at least imagine how the scenario would play out.
Here's hoping we all get some help with this.
Thanks, that's an interesting suggestion. I'm still using a vanilla three button/wheel mouse and might get something more fancy soon. The remaining question is: Will games (not just W3) support the additional buttons of such a device?
