I did a forum search and did not find an answer to this question.

I can't use WASD, but I can use some hotkey configurations. Is it possible to avoid WASD when playing this game? If so, how?

You can use the mouse cursor to lead you character.
Alternative you can change the key settings.

Cool thanks. It was confusing to me, but I'll probably pick up the game soon.

Just rebind to whatever you want. Moving with mouse would be lame.
